When CONFIG_PREEMPT_COUNT is not configured (i.e. CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE/
CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY), preempt_disable() / preempt_enable() merely
acts as a barrier(). However, in these cases cond_resched() can still
trigger a context switch and modify the CSR.EUEN, resulting in do_fpu()
exception being activated within the kernel-fpu critical sections, as
demonstrated in the following path:
dcn32_calculate_wm_and_dlg()
DC_FP_START()
dcn32_calculate_wm_and_dlg_fpu()
dcn32_find_dummy_latency_index_for_fw_based_mclk_switch()
dcn32_internal_validate_bw()
dcn32_enable_phantom_stream()
dc_create_stream_for_sink()
kzalloc(GFP_KERNEL)
__kmem_cache_alloc_node()
__cond_resched()
DC_FP_END()
This patch is similar to commit
d02198550423a0b (x86/fpu: Improve crypto
performance by making kernel-mode FPU reliably usable in softirqs). It
uses local_bh_disable() instead of preempt_disable() for non-RT kernels
so it can avoid the cond_resched() issue, and also extend the kernel-fpu
application scenarios to the softirq context.
