Currently, the only context in which we can invoke an rstat flush from irq context is through mem_cgroup_usage() on the root memcg when called from memcg_check_events(). An rstat flush is an expensive operation that should not be done in irq context, so do not flush stats and use the stale stats in this case. Arguably, usage threshold events are not reliable on the root memcg anyway since its usage is ill-defined.

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.
