The IRQ domain structures are currently protected by the global irq_domain_mutex. Switch to using more fine-grained per-domain locking, which can speed up parallel probing by reducing lock contention. On a recent arm64 laptop, the total time spent waiting for the locks during boot drops from 160 to 40 ms on average, while the maximum aggregate wait time drops from 550 to 90 ms over ten runs for example. Note that the domain lock of the root domain (innermost domain) must be used for hierarchical domains. For non-hierarchical domains (as for root domains), the new root pointer is set to the domain itself so that &domain->root->mutex always points to the right lock. Also note that hierarchical domains should be constructed using irq_domain_create_hierarchy() (or irq_domain_add_hierarchy()) to avoid having racing allocations access a not fully initialised domain. As a safeguard, the lockdep assertion in irq_domain_set_mapping() will catch any offenders that also fail to set the root domain pointer.

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.
