[PATCH 4.19 218/271] padata: use smp_mb in padata_reorder to avoid orphaned padata jobs

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

From: Daniel Jordan <daniel.m.jordan@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit cf144f81a99d1a3928f90b0936accfd3f45c9a0a upstream.

Testing padata with the tcrypt module on a 5.2 kernel...

    # modprobe tcrypt alg="pcrypt(rfc4106(gcm(aes)))" type=3
    # modprobe tcrypt mode=211 sec=1

...produces this splat:

    INFO: task modprobe:10075 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
          Not tainted 5.2.0-base+ #16

     ...

The second modprobe command never finishes because in padata_reorder,
CPU0's load of reorder_objects is executed before the unlocking store in
spin_unlock_bh(pd->lock), causing CPU0 to miss CPU1's increment:

CPU0                                 CPU1

padata_reorder                       padata_do_serial
  LOAD reorder_objects  // 0
                                       INC reorder_objects  // 1
                                       padata_reorder
                                         TRYLOCK pd->lock   // failed
  UNLOCK pd->lock

CPU0 deletes the timer before returning from padata_reorder and since no
other job is submitted to padata, modprobe waits indefinitely.

Add a pair of full barriers to guarantee proper ordering:

CPU0                                 CPU1

padata_reorder                       padata_do_serial
  UNLOCK pd->lock
  smp_mb()
  LOAD reorder_objects
                                       INC reorder_objects
                                       smp_mb__after_atomic()
                                       padata_reorder
                                         TRYLOCK pd->lock

smp_mb__after_atomic is needed so the read part of the trylock operation
comes after the INC, as Andrea points out.   Thanks also to Andrea for
help with writing a litmus test.
