We find a bug that the rcS file may not be executed, resulting in module
and business not being loaded. When trying to execute rcS, the fput()
related to rcS has not done to complete, so deny_write_access() returns
ETXTBSY.
rcS is opened in do_populate_rootfs before executed.
After flush_delayed_fput() has done to complete, do_populate_rootfs
assumes that all fput() related to do_populate_rootfs has done to complete.
However, flush_delayed_fput can only ensure that the fput() on current
delayed_fput_list has done to complete, the fput() that has already been
removed from delayed_fput_list in advance may not be completed. Attempting
to execute the file associated with this fput() now will result in ETXTBSY.
Most of the time, the fput() related to rcS has done to complete in
do_populate_rootfs before executing rcS, but sometimes it's not.
do_populate_rootfs delayed_fput_list delayed_fput execve
fput() a
fput() a->b
fput() a->b->rcS
__fput(a)
fput() c
fput() c->d
__fput(b)
flush_delayed_fput
__fput(c)
__fput(d)
__fput(b)
__fput(b) execve(rcS)
in execve(rcS), deny_write_access(rcS) returns ETXTBSY because __fput(rcS)
has not done to complete.
This patch can guarantee all fput() related to do_populate_rootfs has done
to complete, and ensure that rcS can be executed successfully.
