From ed194d1367698a0872a2b75bbe06b3932ce9df3a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior Date: Mon, 10 Sep 2018 11:20:00 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] usb: core: remove local_irq_save() around ->complete() handler The core disabled interrupts before invocation the ->complete handler because the handler might have expected that interrupts are disabled. All handlers were audited and use proper locking now. With it, the core code no longer needs to disable interrupts before invoking the ->complete handler. Remove local_irq_save() statement before invoking the ->complete handler.
