mm, thp: fix possible circular locking dependency caused by sum_vm_ev…
…ent() Nested circular locking dependency detected by kernel robot (udevadm). udevadm/221 is trying to acquire lock: (&mm->mmap_sem){++++++}, at: [<ffffffff81262543>] __might_fault+0x83/0x150 but task is already holding lock: (s_active#12){++++.+}, at: [<ffffffff813315ee>] kernfs_fop_write+0x8e/0x250 which lock already depends on the new lock. Possible unsafe locking scenario: CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- lock(s_active); lock(cpu_hotplug.lock); lock(s_active); lock(&mm->mmap_sem); the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is: -> #2 (s_active#12){++++.+}: [<ffffffff8117da2c>] lock_acquire+0xac/0x180 [<ffffffff8132f50a>] __kernfs_remove+0x2da/0x410 [<ffffffff81330630>] kernfs_remove_by_name_ns+0x40/0x90 [<ffffffff813339fb>] sysfs_remove_file_ns+0x2b/0x70 [<ffffffff81ba8a16>] device_del+0x166/0x320 [<ffffffff81ba943c>] device_destroy+0x3c/0x50 [<ffffffff8105aa61>] cpuid_class_cpu_callback+0x51/0x70 [<ffffffff81131ce9>] notifier_call_chain+0x59/0x190 [<ffffffff81132749>] __raw_notifier_call_chain+0x9/0x10 [<ffffffff810fe6b0>] __cpu_notify+0x40/0x90 [<ffffffff810fe890>] cpu_notify_nofail+0x10/0x30 [<ffffffff810fe8d7>] notify_dead+0x27/0x1e0 [<ffffffff810fe273>] cpuhp_down_callbacks+0x93/0x190 [<ffffffff82096062>] _cpu_down+0xc2/0x1e0 [<ffffffff810ff727>] do_cpu_down+0x37/0x50 [<ffffffff8110003b>] cpu_down+0xb/0x10 [<ffffffff81038e4d>] _debug_hotplug_cpu+0x7d/0xd0 [<ffffffff8435d6bb>] debug_hotplug_cpu+0xd/0x11 [<ffffffff84352426>] do_one_initcall+0x138/0x1cf [<ffffffff8435270a>] kernel_init_freeable+0x24d/0x2de [<ffffffff8209533a>] kernel_init+0xa/0x120 [<ffffffff820a7972>] ret_from_fork+0x22/0x50 -> #1 (cpu_hotplug.lock#2){+.+.+.}: [<ffffffff8117da2c>] lock_acquire+0xac/0x180 [<ffffffff820a20d1>] mutex_lock_nested+0x71/0x4c0 [<ffffffff810ff526>] get_online_cpus+0x66/0x80 [<ffffffff81246fb3>] sum_vm_event+0x23/0x1b0 [<ffffffff81293768>] collapse_huge_page+0x118/0x10b0 [<ffffffff81294c5d>] khugepaged+0x55d/0xe80 [<ffffffff81130304>] kthread+0x134/0x1a0 [<ffffffff820a7972>] ret_from_fork+0x22/0x50 -> #0 (&mm->mmap_sem){++++++}: [<ffffffff8117bf61>] __lock_acquire+0x2861/0x31f0 [<ffffffff8117da2c>] lock_acquire+0xac/0x180 [<ffffffff8126257e>] __might_fault+0xbe/0x150 [<ffffffff8133160f>] kernfs_fop_write+0xaf/0x250 [<ffffffff812a8933>] __vfs_write+0x43/0x1a0 [<ffffffff812a8d3a>] vfs_write+0xda/0x240 [<ffffffff812a8f84>] SyS_write+0x44/0xa0 [<ffffffff820a773c>] entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x1f/0xbd This patch moves sum_vm_event() before taking down_write(&mm->mmap_sem) to solve dependency lock.
