  [PATCH V2 04/13] Drivers: hv: vmbus: don't manipulate with clocksources on crash "K. Y. Srinivasan" <kys@microsoft.com> - 2016-01-28 06:00 +0100

#1320290 — [PATCH V2 04/13] Drivers: hv: vmbus: don't manipulate with clocksources on crash

From: Vitaly Kuznetsov <vkuznets@redhat.com>

clocksource_change_rating() involves mutex usage and can't be called
in interrupt context. It also makes sense to avoid doing redundant work
on crash.
