[PATCH 4.17 109/336] x86/microcode: Make the late update update_lock a raw lock for RT

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Wed Aug 01 2018 - 14:25:36 EST


4.17-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Scott Wood <swood@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit ff987fcf011d20c53b3a613edf6e2055ea48e26e ]

__reload_late() is called from stop_machine context and thus cannot
acquire a non-raw spinlock on PREEMPT_RT.
