commit 95da84659226d75698a1ab958be0af21d9cc2a9c upstream.
During a context switch the scheduler invokes wq_worker_sleeping() with disabled preemption. Disabling preemption is needed because it protects access to `worker->sleeping'. As an optimisation it avoids invoking schedule() within the schedule path as part of possible wake up (thus preempt_enable_no_resched() afterwards).
The io-wq has been added to the mix in the same section with disabled preemption. This breaks on PREEMPT_RT because io_wq_worker_sleeping() acquires a spinlock_t. Also within the schedule() the spinlock_t must be acquired after tsk_is_pi_blocked() otherwise it will block on the sleeping lock again while scheduling out.
While playing with `io_uring-bench' I didn't notice a significant latency spike after converting io_wqe::lock to a raw_spinlock_t. The latency was more or less the same.
In order to keep the spinlock_t it would have to be moved after the tsk_is_pi_blocked() check which would introduce a branch instruction into the hot path.
The lock is used to maintain the `work_list' and wakes one task up at most. Should io_wqe_cancel_pending_work() cause latency spikes, while searching for a specific item, then it would need to drop the lock during iterations. revert_creds() is also invoked under the lock. According to debug cred::non_rcu is 0. Otherwise it should be moved outside of the locked section because put_cred_rcu()->free_uid() acquires a sleeping lock.
Convert io_wqe::lock to a raw_spinlock_t.c
