Subject: [PATCH] arm64: fpsimd: Delay freeing memory in fpsimd_flush_thread()
Git-repo: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-rt-devel.git
Git-commit: da77ceac3d20f27310a07a7c346a4ee6b40d6c28
Patch-mainline: Queued in subsystem maintainer repository
References: SLE Realtime Extension
fpsimd_flush_thread() invokes kfree() via sve_free() within a preempt disabled
section which is not working on -RT.
Delay freeing of memory until preemption is enabled again.
