[PATCH v3] mm/slab: Annotate kmem_cache_node->list_lock as raw

From: Jiri Kosina
Date: Fri Oct 21 2022 - 15:18:25 EST


From: Jiri Kosina <jkosina@xxxxxxx>

The list_lock can be taken in hardirq context when do_drain() is being
called via IPI on all cores, and therefore lockdep complains about it,
because it can't be preempted on PREEMPT_RT.

That's not a real issue, as SLAB can't be built on PREEMPT_RT anyway, but
we still want to get rid of the warning on non-PREEMPT_RT builds.

Annotate it therefore as a raw lock in order to get rid of he lockdep
warning below.
