ring-buffer: do not disable ring buffer on oops_in_progress
The commit: commit e0fdace10e75dac67d906213b780ff1b1a4cc360 Author: David Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Date: Fri Aug 1 01:11:22 2008 -0700 debug_locks: set oops_in_progress if we will log messages. Otherwise lock debugging messages on runqueue locks can deadlock the system due to the wakeups performed by printk(). Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Will permanently set oops_in_progress on any lockdep failure. When this triggers it will cause any read from the ring buffer to permanently disable the ring buffer (not to mention no locking of printk). This patch removes the check. It keeps the print in NMI which makes sense. This is probably OK, since the ring buffer should not cause something to set oops_in_progress anyway. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
