cpu_hotplug_begin
cpu_hotplug.lock
Pulling cpu hotplug locks inside the page allocator is just too
dangerous. Let's remove the dependency by dropping get_online_cpus()
from drain_all_pages. This is not so simple though because now we do not
have a protection against cpu hotplug which means 2 things:
- the work item might be executed on a different cpu in worker
from unbound pool so it doesn't run on pinned on the cpu
- we have to make sure that we do not race with page_alloc_cpu_dead
calling drain_pages_zone
Disabling preemption in drain_local_pages_wq will solve the first
problem drain_local_pages will determine its local CPU from the WQ
context which will be stable after that point, page_alloc_cpu_dead
is pinned to the CPU already. The later condition is achieved
by disabling IRQs in drain_pages_zone.
Fixes: mm, page_alloc: drain per-cpu pages from workqueue context
