The rockchip DRM driver is quite careful to disable interrupts when taking a lock that is also taken in interrupt context, which is a good thing. What is a bit over the top is to use spin_lock_irqsave when already in interrupt context, as you cannot take another interrupt again, and disabling interrupt is just pure overhead. Switching to the non _irqsave version in interrupt context is more logical, and less heavy handed.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
