[PATCH 5.4 069/214] sched/uclamp: Fix a deadlock when enabling uclamp static key
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Sep 01 2020 - 12:37:20 EST
From: Qais Yousef <qais.yousef@xxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit e65855a52b479f98674998cb23b21ef5a8144b04 ]
The following splat was caught when setting uclamp value of a task:
BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at ./include/linux/percpu-rwsem.h:49
cpus_read_lock+0x68/0x130
static_key_enable+0x1c/0x38
__sched_setscheduler+0x900/0xad8
Fix by ensuring we enable the key outside of the critical section in
__sched_setscheduler()
Fixes: 46609ce22703 ("sched/uclamp: Protect uclamp fast path code with static key")
