Steve Wise 4133b013fa lib/irq_poll: Support schedules in non-interrupt contexts
Do not assume irq_poll_sched() is called from an interrupt context only.
So use raise_softirq_irqoff() instead of __raise_softirq_irqoff() so it
will kick the ksoftirqd if the schedule is from a non-interrupt context.

This is required for RDMA drivers, like soft iwarp, that generate cq
completion notifications in a workqueue or kthread context.  Without this
change, siw completion notifications to the ULP can take several hundred
usecs, depending on the system load.

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.
