[patch 6/11] s390: in_interrupt vs. in_atomic.
From: Martin Schwidefsky <[email protected]>
The condition for no context in do_exception checks for hard and
soft interrupts by using in_interrupt() but not for preemption.
This is bad for the users of __copy_from/to_user_inatomic because
the fault handler might call schedule although the preemption
count is != 0. Use in_atomic() instead in_interrupt().
