The squashfs multi CPU decompressor makes use of get_cpu_ptr() to acquire a pointer to per-CPU data. get_cpu_ptr() implicitly disables preemption which serializes the access to the per-CPU data. But decompression can take quite some time depending on the size. The observed preempt disabled times in real world scenarios went up to 8ms, causing massive wakeup latencies. This happens on all CPUs as the decompression is fully parallelized. Replace the implicit preemption control with an explicit local lock. This allows RT kernels to substitute it with a real per CPU lock, which serializes the access but keeps the code section preemptible. On non RT kernels this maps to preempt_disable() as before, i.e. no functional change.

README
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.
