Subject: proc/vmcore: fix possible deadlock on concurrent mmap and read
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

From: David Hildenbrand <david@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: proc/vmcore: fix possible deadlock on concurrent mmap and read
Lockdep noticed that there is chance for a deadlock if we have concurrent
mmap, concurrent read, and the addition/removal of a callback.
As nicely explained by Boqun:
"
Lockdep warned about the above sequences because rw_semaphore is a fair
read-write lock, and the following can cause a deadlock:
TASK 1 TASK 2 TASK 3
====== ====== ======
down_write(mmap_lock);
down_read(vmcore_cb_rwsem)
down_write(vmcore_cb_rwsem); // blocked
down_read(vmcore_cb_rwsem); // cannot get the lock because of the fairness
down_read(mmap_lock); // blocked
IOW, a reader can block another read if there is a writer queued by the
second reader and the lock is fair.
"
To fix, convert to srcu to make this deadlock impossible. We need srcu as
our callbacks can sleep. With this change, I cannot trigger any lockdep
warnings.
