HI All,

Please validate my understanding regarding the following,

While CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE is set 1 and a process is already in kernel
mode, interrupts to that core will not honored until it exits from
kernel mode,

My understanding is that CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE has nothing to do with
interrupts. Those will still happen.

But if a thread is running, then it won't be preempted by another thread
until it decides to block (as opposed to being preempted at the end of its
time slice or by an interrupt making another thread ready-to-run).
