None of these BUG_ON()'s is justified. BUG_ON() should only be used when there is really no way to survive. If at all these could be replaced by lockdep_assert_preemption_enabled() to cover all invalid caller context and not just those covered by in_interrupt(). But all functions which are invoked from those places contain already debug mechanisms to catch wrong context, so having these extra checks is not having any advantage.

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.
