[RFC PATCH] arm64/mm: hit DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON

From: Anders Roxell
Date: Wed Oct 31 2018 - 08:14:08 EST


I'm running an arm64 kernel in a qemu guest and I hit this
DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON and this patch removes the warning. The
interrupts_enabled(reqs) should reflect the irq->enabled state of the
kgdb test process when it hit the breakpoint, and that should be the
same as the current->hardirqs_enabled flag

Rework code to drop the 'if (interrupts_enabled(regs))' before
trace_hardirqs_*() in function do_debug_exception().

We don't know why current->hardirqs_enabled and interrupts_enabled(regs)
don't match.
