PREEMPT_RT does not spin and wait until a running timer completes its callback but instead it blocks on a sleeping lock to prevent a livelock in the case that the task waiting for the callback completion preempted the callback. This cannot be done for timers flagged with TIMER_IRQSAFE. These timers can be canceled from an interrupt disabled context even on RT kernels. The expiry callback of such timers is invoked with interrupts disabled so there is no need to use the expiry lock mechanism because obviously the callback cannot be preempted even on RT kernels. Do not use the timer_base::expiry_lock mechanism when waiting for a running callback to complete if the timer is flagged with TIMER_IRQSAFE. Also add a lockdep assertion for RT kernels to validate that the expiry lock mechanism is always invoked in preemptible context.

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.
