Sebastian Andrzej Siewior 9458e0a78c flex_proportions: Disable preemption entering the write section.
The seqcount fprop_global::sequence is not associated with a lock. The
write section (fprop_new_period()) is invoked from a timer and since the
softirq is preemptible on PREEMPT_RT it is possible to preempt the write
section which is not desited.

Disable preemption around the write section on PREEMPT_RT.

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.
