1db8c142b6 (drm/scheduler: Add drm_sched_suspend/resume_timeout()) made
the job_list_lock IRQ safe in as the suspend/resume calls were expected to
be called from IRQ context. This usage never materialized in upstream.
Instead amdgpu started locking the job_list_lock in an IRQ unsafe way in
amdgpu_ib_preempt_mark_partial_job() and amdgpu_ib_preempt_job_recovery(),
which leads to potential deadlock if one would actually start to call the
drm_sched_suspend/resume_timeout functions from IRQ context.
As no current user needs the locking to be IRQ safe, the local IRQ
disable/enable is pure overhead. Fix the inconsistent locking by changing
all uses of job_list_lock to use the IRQ unsafe locking primitives.

============
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.
