From: Minchan Kim <minchan@xxxxxxxxxx> commit c0226eb8bde854e016a594a16f5c0d98aca426fa upstream. Check lru_cache_disabled under bh_lru_lock. Otherwise, it could introduce race below and it fails to migrate pages containing buffer_head. CPU 0 CPU 1 bh_lru_install lru_cache_disable lru_cache_disabled = false atomic_inc(&lru_disable_count); invalidate_bh_lrus_cpu of CPU 0 bh_lru_lock __invalidate_bh_lrus bh_lru_unlock bh_lru_lock install the bh bh_lru_unlock WHen this race happens a CMA allocation fails, which is critical for the workload which depends on CMA.
