[PATCH v3 1/8] mm/cma: change cma mutex to irq safe spinlock

From: Mike Kravetz
Date: Tue Mar 30 2021 - 23:43:59 EST


cma_release is currently a sleepable operatation because the bitmap
manipulation is protected by cma->lock mutex. Hugetlb code which relies
on cma_release for CMA backed (giga) hugetlb pages, however, needs to be
irq safe.

The lock doesn't protect any sleepable operation so it can be changed to
a (irq aware) spin lock. The bitmap processing should be quite fast in
typical case but if cma sizes grow to TB then we will likely need to
replace the lock by a more optimized bitmap implementation.
