[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.19 22/25] xen: remove stray preempt_disable() from PV AP startup code

From: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>
Date: 2021-09-10 01:02:04
Also in: lkml, xen-devel
Subsystem: the rest, x86 architecture (32-bit and 64-bit), xen hypervisor x86 · Maintainers: Linus Torvalds, Thomas Gleixner, Ingo Molnar, Borislav Petkov, Dave Hansen, Juergen Gross

From: Juergen Gross <jgross@suse.com>

[ Upstream commit 58e636039b512697554b579c2bb23774061877f5 ]

In cpu_bringup() there is a call of preempt_disable() without a paired
preempt_enable(). This is not needed as interrupts are off initially.
Additionally this will result in early boot messages like:

BUG: scheduling while atomic: swapper/1/0/0x00000002
