Hmm, I don't know if that or it is just this platfrom is lucky to trigger
the race condition quickly, but I can't reproduce it on x86 so far. I am
Cc'ing a few arm64 people to see if they have spot anything I might be
missing. The original bug report is here:

https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/YZV7Z+yXbsx9p3JN@fixkernel.com/

I did narrow it down the same traces were first introduced by those
commits:

d7c9e99aee48 Reimplement RLIMIT_MEMLOCK on top of ucounts
d64696905554 Reimplement RLIMIT_SIGPENDING on top of ucounts
6e52a9f0532f Reimplement RLIMIT_MSGQUEUE on top of ucounts
21d1c5e386bc Reimplement RLIMIT_NPROC on top of ucounts
b6c336528926 Use atomic_t for ucounts reference counting
905ae01c4ae2 Add a reference to ucounts for each cred
f9c82a4ea89c Increase size of ucounts to atomic_long_t

Also, I added a debugging patch here:

--- a/mm/mlock.c
+++ b/mm/mlock.c
@@ -847,8 +847,14 @@ int user_shm_lock(size_t size, struct ucounts *ucounts)

 void user_shm_unlock(size_t size, struct ucounts *ucounts)
 {
+       int i;
+
        spin_lock(&shmlock_user_lock);
+       printk("KK user_shm_unlock ucounts = %d\n", atomic_read(&ucounts->count));
+       for (i = 0; i < UCOUNT_COUNTS; i++)
+               printk("KK type = %d, count = %ld\n", i, atomic_long_read(&ucounts->ucount[i]));
        dec_rlimit_ucounts(ucounts, UCOUNT_RLIMIT_MEMLOCK, (size + PAGE_SIZE - 1) >> PAGE_SHIFT);
+       printk("size = %zu, count = %ld\n", size, atomic_long_read(&ucounts->ucount[UCOUNT_RLIMIT_MEMLOCK]));
        spin_unlock(&shmlock_user_lock);
        put_ucounts(ucounts)

Then, I noticed that ucounts->count is off-by-one. Since the later
put_ucounts() would free the "ucounts", I am wondering if it is actually
correct that "ucounts->count == 1" when entering user_shm_unlock(),
uncounts->ns has already gone. Thus, dec_rlimit_ucounts() should not
blindly traverse ucounts->ns ?
