sched/idle: Make the idle timer expire in hard interrupt context
stable inclusion from stable-5.10.69 commit 83a3cb200effb8f61d51516bd64fd94dea4c7805 bugzilla: 182675 https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I4I3ED Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=83a3cb200effb8f61d51516bd64fd94dea4c7805 -------------------------------- [ Upstream commit 98484179 ] The intel powerclamp driver will setup a per-CPU worker with RT priority. The worker will then invoke play_idle() in which it remains in the idle poll loop until it is stopped by the timer it started earlier. That timer needs to expire in hard interrupt context on PREEMPT_RT. Otherwise the timer will expire in ksoftirqd as a SOFT timer but that task won't be scheduled on the CPU because its priority is lower than the priority of the worker which is in the idle loop. Always expire the idle timer in hard interrupt context. Reported-by:Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by:
