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:

This patch moves sum_vm_event() before taking down_write(&mm->mmap_sem)
to solve dependency lock.
