Pull irq updates from Thomas Gleixner: "The usual updates from the irq departement: Core changes: - Provide IRQF_NO_AUTOEN as a flag for request*_irq() so drivers can be cleaned up which either use a seperate mechanism to prevent auto-enable at request time or have a racy mechanism which disables the interrupt right after request. - Get rid of the last usage of irq_create_identity_mapping() and remove the interface. - An overhaul of tasklet_disable(). Most usage sites of tasklet_disable() are in task context and usually in cleanup, teardown code pathes. tasklet_disable() spinwaits for a tasklet which is currently executed. That's not only a problem for PREEMPT_RT where this can lead to a live lock when the disabling task preempts the softirq thread. It's also problematic in context of virtualization when the vCPU which runs the tasklet is scheduled out and the disabling code has to spin wait until it's scheduled back in. There are a few code pathes which invoke tasklet_disable() from non-sleepable context. For these a new disable variant which still spinwaits is provided which allows to switch tasklet_disable() to a sleep wait mechanism. For the atomic use cases this does not solve the live lock issue on PREEMPT_RT. That is mitigated by blocking on the RT specific softirq lock. - The PREEMPT_RT specific implementation of softirq processing and local_bh_disable/enable(). On RT enabled kernels soft interrupt processing happens always in task context and all interrupt handlers, which are not explicitly marked to be invoked in hard interrupt context are forced into task context as well. This allows to protect against softirq processing with a per CPU lock, which in turn allows to make BH disabled regions preemptible. Most of the softirq handling code is still shared. The RT/non-RT specific differences are addressed with a set of inline functions which provide the context specific functionality. The local_bh_disable() / local_bh_enable() mechanism are obviously seperate. - The usual set of small improvements and cleanups Driver changes: - New drivers for Nuvoton WPCM450 and DT 79rc3243x interrupt controllers - Extended functionality for MStar, STM32 and SC7280 irq chips - Enhanced robustness for ARM GICv3/4.1 drivers - The usual set of cleanups and improvements all over the place" * tag 'irq-core-2021-04-26' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (53 commits) irqchip/xilinx: Expose Kconfig option for Zynq/ZynqMP irqchip/gic-v3: Do not enable irqs when handling spurious interrups dt-bindings: interrupt-controller: Add IDT 79RC3243x Interrupt Controller irqchip: Add support for IDT 79rc3243x interrupt controller irqdomain: Drop references to recusive irqdomain setup irqdomain: Get rid of irq_create_strict_mappings() irqchip/jcore-aic: Kill use of irq_create_strict_mappings() ARM: PXA: Kill use of irq_create_strict_mappings() irqchip/gic-v4.1: Disable vSGI upon (GIC CPUIF < v4.1) detection irqchip/tb10x: Use 'fallthrough' to eliminate a warning genirq: Reduce irqdebug cacheline bouncing kernel: Initialize cpumask before parsing irqchip/wpcm450: Drop COMPILE_TEST irqchip/irq-mst: Support polarity configuration irqchip: Add driver for WPCM450 interrupt controller dt-bindings: interrupt-controller: Add nuvoton, wpcm450-aic dt-bindings: qcom,pdc: Add compatible for sc7280 irqchip/stm32: Add usart instances exti direct event support irqchip/gic-v3: Fix OF_BAD_ADDR error handling irqchip/sifive-plic: Mark two global variables __ro_after_init ...
