__napi_schedule_irqoff() is an optimized version of __napi_schedule() which can be used where it is known that interrupts are disabled, e.g. in interrupt-handlers, spin_lock_irq() sections or hrtimer callbacks. On PREEMPT_RT enabled kernels this assumptions is not true. Force- threaded interrupt handlers and spinlocks are not disabling interrupts and the NAPI hrtimer callback is forced into softirq context which runs with interrupts enabled as well. Chasing all usage sites of __napi_schedule_irqoff() is a whack-a-mole game so make __napi_schedule_irqoff() invoke __napi_schedule() for PREEMPT_RT kernels. The callers of ____napi_schedule() in the networking core have been audited and are correct on PREEMPT_RT kernels as well.

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.
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.
