[PATCH V2 04/13] Drivers: hv: vmbus: don't manipulate with clocksources on crash

From: K. Y. Srinivasan
Date: Wed Jan 27 2016 - 23:54:11 EST


From: Vitaly Kuznetsov <vkuznets@xxxxxxxxxx>

clocksource_change_rating() involves mutex usage and can't be called
in interrupt context. It also makes sense to avoid doing redundant work
on crash.
