4.19-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Christoph Hellwig <hch@xxxxxx> commit ae62c16e105a869524afcf8a07ee85c5ae5d0479 upstream. userfaultfd contains howe-grown locking of the waitqueue lock, and does not disable interrupts. This relies on the fact that no one else takes it from interrupt context and violates an invariat of the normal waitqueue locking scheme. With aio poll it is easy to trigger other locks that disable interrupts (or are called from interrupt context).
