[Xen-devel] [PATCH v2 4/4] xen/rcu: add assertions to debug build

[Juergen Gross <jgross@xxxxxxxx>]

Xen's RCU implementation relies on no softirq handling taking place
while being in a RCU critical section. Add ASSERT()s in debug builds
in order to catch any violations.

For that purpose modify rcu_read_[un]lock() to use a dedicated percpu
counter instead of preempt_[en|dis]able() as this enables to test
that condition in __do_softirq() (ASSERT_NOT_IN_ATOMIC() is not
usable there due to __cpu_up() calling process_pending_softirqs()
while holding the cpu hotplug lock).

Dropping the now no longer needed #include of preempt.h in rcupdate.h
requires adding it in some sources.
