__raid_run_ops() disables preemption with get_cpu() around the access
to the raid5_percpu variables. That causes scheduling while atomic
spews on RT.
Serialize the access to the percpu data with a lock and keep the code
preemptible.

The processing of softirqs in irq thread context is a performance gain
for the non-rt workloads of a system, but it's counterproductive for
interrupts which are explicitely related to the realtime
workload. Allow such interrupts to prevent softirq processing in their
thread context.

When CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT_FULL is enabled, tasklets run as threads,
and spinlocks turn are mutexes. But this can cause issues with
tasks disabling tasklets. A tasklet runs under ksoftirqd, and
if a tasklets are disabled with tasklet_disable(), the tasklet
count is increased. When a tasklet runs, it checks this counter
and if it is set, it adds itself back on the softirq queue and
returns.
The problem arises in RT because ksoftirq will see that a softirq
is ready to run (the tasklet softirq just re-armed itself), and will
not sleep, but instead run the softirqs again. The tasklet softirq
will still see that the count is non-zero and will not execute
the tasklet and requeue itself on the softirq again, which will
cause ksoftirqd to run it again and again and again.
It gets worse because ksoftirqd runs as a real-time thread.
If it preempted the task that disabled tasklets, and that task
has migration disabled, or can't run for other reasons, the tasklet
softirq will never run because the count will never be zero, and
ksoftirqd will go into an infinite loop. As an RT task, it this
becomes a big problem.
This is a hack solution to have tasklet_disable stop tasklets, and
when a tasklet runs, instead of requeueing the tasklet softirqd
it delays it. When tasklet_enable() is called, and tasklets are
waiting, then the tasklet_enable() will kick the tasklets to continue.
This prevents the lock up from ksoftirq going into an infinite loop.

Proposal for a minor optimization in update_migrate_disable - its only a few
instructions saved but those are in the hot path of locks so it might be worth
it
When being scheduled out while migrate_disable > 0 and migrate_disabled_updated
is not yet set we end up here (kernel/sched/core.c):
static inline void update_migrate_disable(struct task_struct *p)
{
...
mask = tsk_cpus_allowed(p);
if (p->sched_class->set_cpus_allowed)
p->sched_class->set_cpus_allowed(p, mask);
p->nr_cpus_allowed = cpumask_weight(mask);
as we only can get here if migrate_disable > 0 there is no need to calculate
the cpumask_weight(mask) as tsk_cpus_allowed in that case will return
cpumask_of(task_cpu(p)) which only can have a hamming weight of 1 anyway.
So we can simply do:
p->nr_cpus_allowed = 1;
without changing the behavior.

Minor cleanup in migrate_disable/migrate_enable. The recursive case
does not need to disable preemption as it is "pinned" to the current
cpu any way so it is safe to preempt it.

The migrate_disable() can cause a bit of a overhead to the RT kernel,
as changing the affinity is expensive to do at every lock encountered.
As a running task can not migrate, the actual disabling of migration
does not need to occur until the task is about to schedule out.
In most cases, a task that disables migration will enable it before
it schedules making this change improve performance tremendously.

Assigning mask = tsk_cpus_allowed(p) after p->migrate_disable = 0 ensures
that we won't see a mask change.. no push/pull, we stack tasks on one CPU.
Also add a couple fields to sched_debug for the next guy.

Make migrate_disable() be a preempt_disable() for !rt kernels. This
allows generic code to use it but still enforces that these code
sections stay relatively small.
A preemptible migrate_disable() accessible for general use would allow
people growing arbitrary per-cpu crap instead of clean these things
up.

RT added two bytes to trace migrate disable counting to the trace events
and used two bytes of the padding to make the change. The structures and
all were updated correctly, but the display in the event formats was
not:
cat /debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_switch/format
name: sched_switch
ID: 51
format:
field:unsigned short common_type; offset:0; size:2; signed:0;
field:unsigned char common_flags; offset:2; size:1; signed:0;
field:unsigned char common_preempt_count; offset:3; size:1; signed:0;
field:int common_pid; offset:4; size:4; signed:1;
field:unsigned short common_migrate_disable; offset:8; size:2; signed:0;
field:int common_padding; offset:10; size:2; signed:0;
The field for common_padding has the correct size and offset, but the
use of "int" might confuse some parsers (and people that are reading
it). This needs to be changed to "unsigned short".

cpu_unplug_begin() should be called before CPU_DOWN_PREPARE, because
at CPU_DOWN_PREPARE cpu_active is cleared and sched_domain is
rebuilt. Otherwise the 'sync_unplug' thread will be running on the cpu
on which it's created and not bound on the cpu which is about to go
down.
I found that by an incorrect warning on smp_processor_id() called by
sync_unplug/1, and trace shows below:

When retry happens, it's likely that the task has been migrated to
another cpu (except unplug failed), but it still derefernces the
original hotplug_pcp per cpu data.
Update the pointer to hotplug_pcp in the retry path, so it points to
the current cpu.

get_online_cpus() is a heavy weight function which involves a global
mutex. migrate_disable() wants a simpler construct which prevents only
a CPU from going doing while a task is in a migrate disabled section.
Implement a per cpu lockless mechanism, which serializes only in the
real unplug case on a global mutex. That serialization affects only
tasks on the cpu which should be brought down.

In -rt, most spin_locks() turn into mutexes. One of these spin_lock
conversions is performed on the workqueue gcwq->lock. When the idle
worker is worken, the first thing it will do is grab that same lock and
it too will block, possibly jumping into the same code, but because
nr_running would already be decremented it prevents an infinite loop.
But this is still a waste of CPU cycles, and it doesn't follow the method
of mainline, as new workers should only be woken when a worker thread is
truly going to sleep, and not just blocked on a spin_lock().
Check the saved_state too before waking up new workers.

When a task blocks on a rt lock, it saves the current state in
p->saved_state, so a lock related wake up will not destroy the
original state.
When a real wakeup happens, while the task is running due to a lock
wakeup already, we update p->saved_state to TASK_RUNNING, but we do
not return success, which might cause another wakeup in the waitqueue
code and the task remains in the waitqueue list. Return success in
that case as well.

Carsten reported problems when running:
taskset 01 chrt -f 1 sleep 1
from within rc.local on a F15 machine. The task stays running and
never gets on the run queue because some of the run queues have
rt_throttled=1 which does not go away. Works nice from a ssh login
shell. Disabling CONFIG_RT_GROUP_SCHED solves that as well.

The clock_was_set_delayed is called in hard IRQ handler (timer interrupt), which

Under PREEMPT_RT_FULL, schedule_work calls spinlocks which could sleep, so it's
