A sequence counter write side critical section must be protected by some form of locking to serialize writers. If the serialization primitive is not disabling preemption implicitly, preemption has to be explicitly disabled before entering the sequence counter write side critical section. A plain seqcount_t does not contain the information of which lock must be held when entering a write side critical section. Use the new seqcount_spinlock_t and seqcount_mutex_t data types instead, which allow to associate a lock with the sequence counter. This enables lockdep to verify that the lock used for writer serialization is held when the write side critical section is entered. If lockdep is disabled this lock association is compiled out and has neither storage size nor runtime overhead. Signed-off-by: NAhmed S.
