Sebastian Andrzej Siewior 58c4a95f90 iommu/vt-d: Don't disable preemption while accessing deferred_flush()
get_cpu() disables preemption and returns the current CPU number. The
CPU number is only used once while retrieving the address of the local's
CPU deferred_flush pointer.
We can instead use raw_cpu_ptr() while we remain preemptible. The worst
thing that can happen is that flush_unmaps_timeout() is invoked multiple
times: once by taskA after seeing HIGH_WATER_MARK and then preempted to
another CPU and then by taskB which saw HIGH_WATER_MARK on the same CPU
as taskA. It is also likely that ->size got from HIGH_WATER_MARK to 0
right after its read because another CPU invoked flush_unmaps_timeout()
for this CPU.
The access to flush_data is protected by a spinlock so even if we get
migrated to another CPU or preempted - the data structure is protected.

While at it, I marked deferred_flush static since I can't find a
reference to it outside of this file.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
