Nicolas Saenz Julienne 832b507253 mm: mmap_lock: use local locks instead of disabling preemption
mmap_lock will explicitly disable/enable preemption upon manipulating its
local CPU variables.  This is to be expected, but in this case, it doesn't
play well with PREEMPT_RT.  The preemption disabled code section also
takes a spin-lock.  Spin-locks in RT systems will try to schedule, which
is exactly what we're trying to avoid.

To mitigate this, convert the explicit preemption handling to local_locks.
Which are RT aware, and will disable migration instead of preemption when
PREEMPT_RT=y.

The faulty call trace looks like the following:
    __mmap_lock_do_trace_*()
      preempt_disable()
      get_mm_memcg_path()
        cgroup_path()
          kernfs_path_from_node()
            spin_lock_irqsave() /* Scheduling while atomic! */

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
