[PATCH v3 3/3] genirq: reimplement exit_irq_thread() hook viatask_work_queue()

From: Oleg Nesterov
Date: Thu Apr 12 2012 - 17:13:46 EST


exit_irq_thread() and task->irq_thread are needed to handle
the unexpected (and unlikely) exit of irq-thread.

We can use task_work instead and make this all private to
kernel/irq/manage.c, simplification plus micro-optimization.

1. rename exit_irq_thread() to irq_thread_dtor(), make it
static, and move it up before irq_thread().

2. change irq_thread() to do task_queue_work(irq_thread_dtor)
at the start and task_work_cancel() before return.

tracehook_notify_resume() can never play with kthreads,
only do_exit()->exit_task_work() can call the callback
and this is what we want.

3. remove task_struct->irq_thread and the special hook
in do_exit().
