[PATCH RESEND] mm: fix tick_sched timer blocked by pgdat_resize_lock

[Shile Zhang]

When 'CONFIG_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT' is set, 'pgdat_resize_lock'
will be called inside 'pgdatinit' kthread to initialise the deferred
pages with local interrupts disabled. Which is introduced by
commit 3a2d7fa8a3d5 ("mm: disable interrupts while initializing deferred
pages").

But 'pgdatinit' kthread is possible be pined on the boot CPU (CPU#0 by
default), especially in small system with NRCPUS <= 2. In this case, the
interrupts are disabled on boot CPU during memory initialising, which
caused the tick_sched timer be blocked, leading to wall clock stuck.

Fixes: commit 3a2d7fa8a3d5 ("mm: disable interrupts while initializing
deferred pages")
