mm/memcg: protect memcg_stock with a local_lock_t
The members of the per-CPU structure memcg_stock_pcp are protected by
disabling interrupts. This is not working on PREEMPT_RT because it
creates atomic context in which actions are performed which require
preemptible context. One example is obj_cgroup_release().
The IRQ-disable sections can be replaced with local_lock_t which
preserves the explicit disabling of interrupts while keeps the code
preemptible on PREEMPT_RT.
drain_obj_stock() drops a reference on obj_cgroup which leads to an
invocat= ion of obj_cgroup_release() if it is the last object. This in
turn leads to recursive locking of the local_lock_t. To avoid this,
obj_cgroup_release() = is invoked outside of the locked section.
obj_cgroup_uncharge_pages() can be invoked with the local_lock_t
acquired a= nd without it. This will lead later to a recursion in
refill_stock(). To avoid the locking recursion provide
obj_cgroup_uncharge_pages_locked() which uses the locked version of
refill_stock().
- Replace disabling interrupts for memcg_stock with a local_lock_t.
- Let drain_obj_stock() return the old struct obj_cgroup which is
passed to obj_cgroup_put() outside of the locked section.
- Provide obj_cgroup_uncharge_pages_locked() which uses the locked
version of refill_stock() to avoid recursive locking in
drain_obj_stock().
