[RFC PATCH v2 1/4] hugetlbfs: revert use of i_mmap_rwsem for pmd sharing and more sync

From: Mike Kravetz
Date: Mon Oct 26 2020 - 19:32:36 EST


i_mmap_rwsem is being used for synchronization of huge pmd sharing.
This required changing the locking order such that i_mmap_rwsem needed
to be taken before a page lock. This can be accommodated in hugetlbfs
specific code, but becomes problematic in the areas of page migration
and memory failure where it is hard to get around the normal locking
order.

In subsequent patches, a new rw semaphore will be added to the hugetlbfs
inode for this type of synchronization. This patch will revert use of
i_mmap_rwsem for pmd sharing and fault/truncate synchronization.

The following commits are reverted:
commit 0bf7b64e6e51 ("hugetlb: add lockdep check for i_mmap_rwsem held in
huge_pmd_share")
commit 34ae204f1851 ("hugetlbfs: remove call to huge_pte_alloc without
i_mmap_rwsem")
commit 1139d336fff4 ("mm/hugetlb.c: fix pages per hugetlb calculation")
commit 87bf91d39bb5 ("hugetlbfs: Use i_mmap_rwsem to address page
fault/truncate race")
commit c0d0381ade79 ("hugetlbfs: use i_mmap_rwsem for more pmd sharing
synchronization")
