Subject: [PATCH 4.10 045/167] mm, devm_memremap_pages: hold device_hotplug lock over mem_hotplug_{begin, done}

4.10-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@...el.com>

commit b5d24fda9c3dce51fcb4eee459550a458eaaf1e2 upstream.

The mem_hotplug_{begin,done} lock coordinates with {get,put}_online_mems()
to hold off "readers" of the current state of memory from new hotplug
actions.  mem_hotplug_begin() expects exclusive access, via the
device_hotplug lock, to set mem_hotplug.active_writer.  Calling
mem_hotplug_begin() without locking device_hotplug can lead to
corrupting mem_hotplug.refcount and missed wakeups / soft lockups.
