[PATCH v2] sbitmap: Silence a debug kernel warning triggered by sbitmap_put()

From: Bart Van Assche <bvanassche@acm.org>
Date: 2021-03-17 03:28:08

All sbitmap code uses implied preemption protection to update
sb->alloc_hint except sbitmap_put(). Using implied preemption protection
is safe since the value of sb->alloc_hint only affects performance of
sbitmap allocations but not their correctness. Change this_cpu_ptr() in
sbitmap_put() into raw_cpu_ptr() to suppress the following kernel warning
that appears with preemption debugging enabled (CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT):

BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000000] code: scsi_eh_0/152

Applied to 5.13/scsi-queue, thanks!
