[PATCH] locking/local_lock: Pretend to use the per-CPU variable if not needed.

From: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior
Date: Wed Mar 23 2022 - 07:09:47 EST


In the !RT && !LOCKDEP case the per-CPU variables aren't used. The commit
mentioned below tried to avoid the usage of this_cpu_ptr() because it
generates code, clobbers registers which is not needed.
This change generated so little reference to the variable that llvm
assumed that it is not used and created a warning.

Revert local_lock_*() to its previous static inline implementation for
type checking.
Replace this_cpu_ptr() with __ll_cpu_ptr() which points to
this_cpu_ptr() when it is used.
In the !RT && !LOCKDEP case use per_cpu_ptr(, 0) which does not leave
any code behind and llvm does not complain either. It also ensures that
it is a per-CPU pointer. The assembly output in this case is unchanged.

Fixes: 9983a9d577db4 ("locking/local_lock: Make the empty local_lock_*() function a macro.")
