RT kernels have a slightly more complicated handling of wakeups due to 'sleeping' spin/rwlocks. If a task is blocked on such a lock then the original state of the task is preserved over the blocking period, and any regular (non lock related) wakeup has to be targeted at the saved state to ensure that these wakeups are not lost. Once the task acquires the lock it restores the task state from the saved state. To avoid cluttering try_to_wake_up() with that logic, split the wakeup state check out into an inline helper and use it at both places where task::__state is checked against the state argument of try_to_wake_up(). No functional change.

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.
