From b5de34ed87f39fc3f6eb7e7df543317e7efb94a8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Frederic Weisbecker Date: Tue, 23 Dec 2025 15:12:46 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] timers/migration: Prevent from lockdep false positive warning Testing housekeeping_cpu() will soon require that either the RCU "lock" is held or the cpuset mutex. When CPUs get isolated through cpuset, the change is propagated to timer migration such that isolation is also performed from the migration tree. However that propagation is done using workqueue which tests if the target is actually isolated before proceeding. Lockdep doesn't know that the workqueue caller holds cpuset mutex and that it waits for the work, making the housekeeping cpumask read safe. Shut down the future warning by removing this test. It is unecessary beyond hotplug, the workqueue is already targeted towards isolated CPUs.
