Yang Shi 94b7cc01da 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.

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.
