Subject: [PATCH 0/3] memory_hotplug: hyperv: fix deadlock between memory adding and onlining
If newly added memory is brought online with e.g. udev rule:
SUBSYSTEM=="memory", ACTION=="add", ATTR{state}="online"
the following deadlock is observed (and easily reproducable):
First participant, worker thread doing add_memory():

In short: onlining grabs device lock and then tries to do mem_hotplug_begin()
while add_memory() is between mem_hotplug_begin() and mem_hotplug_done() and it
tries grabbing device lock.
To my understanding ACPI memory hotplug doesn't have the same issue as
device_hotplug_lock is being grabbed when the ACPI device is added.
Solve the issue by grabbing device_hotplug_lock before doing add_memory(). If
we do that, lock_device_hotplug_sysfs() will cause syscall retry which will
eventually succeed. To support the change we need to export lock_device_hotplug/
unlock_device_hotplug. This approach can be completely wrong though.
Vitaly Kuznetsov (3):
driver core: export lock_device_hotplug/unlock_device_hotplug
memory_hotplug: add note about holding device_hotplug_lock and
add_memory()
