Subject: [PATCH 1/2] profiling: initialize prof_cpu_mask from
profile_online_cpu()
syzbot is reporting uninit-value at profile_hits(), for commit acd895795d35
("profiling: fix broken profiling regression") by error initialized
prof_cpu_mask too early.
do_profile_hits() is called from profile_tick() from timer interrupt
only if cpumask_test_cpu(smp_processor_id(), prof_cpu_mask) is true and
prof_buffer is not NULL. But the syzbot's report says that profile_hits()
was called while current thread is still doing vzalloc(buffer_bytes)
where prof_buffer is NULL at this moment. This indicates two things.
One is that cpumask_set_cpu(cpu, prof_cpu_mask) should have been called
from profile_online_cpu() from cpuhp_setup_state() only after
profile_init() completed. Fix this by explicitly calling cpumask_copy()
from create_proc_profile() on only UP kernels.
The other is that multiple threads concurrently tried to write to
/sys/kernel/profiling interface, which caused that somebody else tried
to re-initialize prof_buffer despite somebody has already initialized
prof_buffer. Fix this by using serialization.
