    x86/dumpstack: Allow preemption in show_stack_log_lvl() and dump_trace() · cfeeed27
    Josh Poimboeuf authored
    show_stack_log_lvl() and dump_trace() are already preemption safe:
    
    - If they're running in irq or exception context, preemption is already
      disabled and the percpu stack pointers can be trusted.
    
    - If they're running with preemption enabled, they must be running on
      the task stack anyway, so it doesn't matter if they're comparing the
      stack pointer against a percpu stack pointer from this CPU or another
      one: either way it won't match.
