Subject: mm: vmscan: hold write lock to reparent shrinker nr_deferred
Date: Tue, 7 Mar 2023 14:56:03 +0800
For now, reparent_shrinker_deferred() is the only holder of read lock of
shrinker_rwsem. And it already holds the global cgroup_mutex, so it will
not be called in parallel.
Therefore, in order to convert shrinker_rwsem to shrinker_mutex later,
here we change to hold the write lock of shrinker_rwsem to reparent.
