mm: shmem: disable interrupt when acquiring info->lock in userfaultfd_copy path
Syzbot reported the below lockdep splat: WARNING: possible irq lock inversion dependency detected 5.6.0-rc7-syzkaller #0 Not tainted -------------------------------------------------------- syz-executor.0/10317 just changed the state of lock: ffff888021d16568 (&(&info->lock)->rlock){+.+.}, at: spin_lock include/linux/spinlock.h:338 [inline] ffff888021d16568 (&(&info->lock)->rlock){+.+.}, at: shmem_mfill_atomic_pte+0x1012/0x21c0 mm/shmem.c:2407 but this lock was taken by another, SOFTIRQ-safe lock in the past: (&(&xa->xa_lock)->rlock#5){..-.} and interrupts could create inverse lock ordering between them. other info that might help us debug this: Possible interrupt unsafe locking scenario: CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- lock(&(&info->lock)->rlock); local_irq_disable(); lock(&(&xa->xa_lock)->rlock#5); lock(&(&info->lock)->rlock); <Interrupt> lock(&(&xa->xa_lock)->rlock#5); *** DEADLOCK *** The full report is quite lengthy, please see: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/alpine.LSU.2.11.2004152007370.13597@eggly.anvils/T/#m813b412c5f78e25ca8c6c7734886ed4de43f241d It is because CPU 0 held info->lock with IRQ enabled in userfaultfd_copy path, then CPU 1 is splitting a THP which held xa_lock and info->lock in IRQ disabled context at the same time. If softirq comes in to acquire xa_lock, the deadlock would be triggered. The fix is to acquire/release info->lock with *_irq version instead of plain spin_{lock,unlock} to make it softirq safe.
