rcu: Break rcu_node_0 --> &rq->__lock order
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
[ Upstream commit 85d6822 ]

Commit 851a723 ("sched: Always clear user_cpus_ptr in
do_set_cpus_allowed()") added a kfree() call to free any user
provided affinity mask, if present. It was changed later to use
kfree_rcu() in commit 9a5418b ("sched/core: Use kfree_rcu()
in do_set_cpus_allowed()") to avoid a circular locking dependency
problem.

It turns out that even kfree_rcu() isn't safe for avoiding
circular locking problem. As reported by kernel test robot,
the following circular locking dependency now exists:

  &rdp->nocb_lock --> rcu_node_0 --> &rq->__lock

Solve this by breaking the rcu_node_0 --> &rq->__lock chain by moving
the resched_cpu() out from under rcu_node lock.

[paulmck: applied Z qiang feedback]
