Rather than use spinlocks to protect batched entropy, we can instead disable interrupts locally, since we're dealing with per-cpu data, and manage resets with a basic generation counter. At the same time, we can't quite do this on PREEMPT_RT, where we still want spinlocks-as- mutexes semantics. So we use a local_lock_t, which provides the right behavior for each. Because this is a per-cpu lock, that generation counter is still doing the necessary CPU-to-CPU communication. This should improve performance a bit. It will also fix the linked splat that Jonathan received with a PROVE_RAW_LOCK_NESTING=y.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
