4.19.37-rt20-rc1 stable review patch.
If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bige...@linutronix.de>
The locks (timeline->lock and rq->lock) need to be taken with disabled
interrupts. This is done in __retire_engine_request() by disabling the
interrupts independently of the locks itself.
While local_irq_disable()+spin_lock() equals spin_lock_irq() on vanilla
it does not on RT. Also, it is not obvious if there is a special reason
to why the interrupts are disabled independently of the lock.
Enable/disable interrupts as part of the locking instruction.
