commit5cc2db3712upstream. __static_call_update_early() has a check for early_boot_irqs_disabled, but is used before early_boot_irqs_disabled is set up in start_kernel(). Xen PV has always special cased early_boot_irqs_disabled, but Xen PVH does not and falls over the BUG when booting as dom0. It is very suspect that early_boot_irqs_disabled starts as 0, becomes 1 for a time, then becomes 0 again, but as this needs backporting to fix a breakage in a security fix, dropping the BUG_ON() is the far safer option.

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.
