Thomas Gleixner 50864670b3 block: Shorten interrupt disabled regions 
Commit 9c40cef2b7 ("sched: Move blk_schedule_flush_plug() out of
__schedule()") moved the blk_schedule_flush_plug() call out of the
interrupt/preempt disabled region in the scheduler. This allows to replace
local_irq_save/restore(flags) by local_irq_disable/enable() in
blk_flush_plug_list().

But it makes more sense to disable interrupts explicitly when the request
queue is locked end reenable them when the request to is unlocked. This
shortens the interrupt disabled section which is important when the plug
list contains requests for more than one queue. The comment which claims
that disabling interrupts around the loop is misleading as the called
functions can reenable interrupts unconditionally anyway and obfuscates the
scope badly:

 local_irq_save(flags);
   spin_lock(q->queue_lock);
   ...
   queue_unplugged(q...);
     scsi_request_fn();
       spin_unlock_irq(q->queue_lock);

-------------------^^^ ????

       spin_lock_irq(q->queue_lock);
     spin_unlock(q->queue_lock);
 local_irq_restore(flags);

Aside of that the detached interrupt disabling is a constant pain for
PREEMPT_RT as it requires patching and special casing when RT is enabled
while with the spin_*_irq() variants this happens automatically.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
