This looks wrong. On mainline the calling code must have preemption disable
somehow, otherwise this_cpu_ptr() would not work.

Looking at the call site it is;

zram_slot_lock()
bit_spin_lock()

which is of course evading lockdep and everything else debugging wise.

Sebastian, do we have migration protection in bitlocked regions? And we
shpuld look into converting that into a spinlock on rt.

Thanks,

tglx
