When handling events, armv8pmu_handle_irq() calls perf_event_overflow(), and subsequently calls irq_work_run() to handle any work queued by perf_event_overflow(). As perf_event_overflow() raises IPI_IRQ_WORK when queuing the work, this isn't strictly necessary and the work could be handled as part of the IPI_IRQ_WORK handler. In the common case the IPI handler will run immediately after the PMU IRQ handler, and where the PE is heavily loaded with interrupts other handlers may run first, widening the window where some counters are disabled. In practice this window is unlikely to be a significant issue, and removing the call to irq_work_run() would make the PMU IRQ handler NMI safe in addition to making it simpler, so let's do that.

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.
