2017-05-26jump_label: Reorder hotplug lock and jump_label_lockThomas Gleixner
The conversion of the hotplug locking to a percpu rwsem unearthed lock ordering issues all over the place. The jump_label code has two issues: 1) Nested get_online_cpus() invocations 2) Ordering problems vs. the cpus rwsem and the jump_label_mutex To cure these, the following lock order has been established; cpus_rwsem -> jump_label_lock -> text_mutex Even if not all architectures need protection against CPU hotplug, taking cpus_rwsem before jump_label_lock is now mandatory in code pathes which actually modify code and therefor need text_mutex protection. Move the get_online_cpus() invocations into the core jump label code and establish the proper lock order where required.

2016-01-04tile/jump_label: add jump label support for TILE-GxZhigang Lu
Add the arch-specific code to support jump label for TILE-Gx. This code shares NOP instruction with ftrace, so we move it to a common header file. Reviewed-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@ezchip.com> Signed-off-by: Zhigang Lu <zlu@ezchip.com> Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@ezchip.com>
