Sebastian Andrzej Siewior d1542d4ae4 seg6: Use nested-BH locking for seg6_bpf_srh_states.
The access to seg6_bpf_srh_states is protected by disabling preemption.
Based on the code, the entry point is input_action_end_bpf() and
every other function (the bpf helper functions bpf_lwt_seg6_*()), that
is accessing seg6_bpf_srh_states, should be called from within
input_action_end_bpf().

input_action_end_bpf() accesses seg6_bpf_srh_states first at the top of
the function and then disables preemption. This looks wrong because if
preemption needs to be disabled as part of the locking mechanism then
the variable shouldn't be accessed beforehand.

Looking at how it is used via test_lwt_seg6local.sh then
input_action_end_bpf() is always invoked from softirq context. If this
is always the case then the preempt_disable() statement is superfluous.
If this is not always invoked from softirq then disabling only
preemption is not sufficient.

Replace the preempt_disable() statement with nested-BH locking. This is
not an equivalent replacement as it assumes that the invocation of
input_action_end_bpf() always occurs in softirq context and thus the
preempt_disable() is superfluous.
Add a local_lock_t the data structure and use local_lock_nested_bh() for
locking. Add lockdep_assert_held() to ensure the lock is held while the
per-CPU variable is referenced in the helper functions.

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 reStructuredText 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.
