drain_local_pages_wq() disables preemption to avoid CPU migration during CPU hotplug and can't use cpus_read_lock(). Using migrate_disable() works here, too. The scheduler won't take the CPU offline until the task left the migrate-disable section. The problem with disabled preemption here is that drain_local_pages() acquires locks which are turned into sleeping locks on PREEMPT_RT and can't be acquired with disabled preemption. Use migrate_disable() in drain_local_pages_wq().

README
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.
