This reverts commit ad6b26b6a0a79166b53209df2ca1cf8636296382.
This commit introduces per-memcg/task NUMA balance statistics, but
unfortunately it introduced a NULL pointer exception due to the following
race condition: After a swap task candidate was chosen, its mm_struct
pointer was set to NULL due to task exit. Later, when performing the
actual task swapping, the p->mm caused the problem.
CPU0 CPU1
:
...
task_numa_migrate
task_numa_find_cpu
task_numa_compare
# a normal task p is chosen
env->best_task = p
# p exit:
exit_signals(p);
p->flags |= PF_EXITING
exit_mm
p->mm = NULL;
migrate_swap_stop
__migrate_swap_task((arg->src_task, arg->dst_cpu)
count_memcg_event_mm(p->mm, NUMA_TASK_SWAP)# p->mm is NULL
task_lock() should be held and the PF_EXITING flag needs to be checked to
prevent this from happening. After discussion, the conclusion was that
adding a lock is not worthwhile for some statistics calculations. Revert
the change and rely on the tracepoint for this purpose.

Since exit_task_work() runs after perf_event_exit_task_context() updated ctx->task to TASK_TOMBSTONE, perf_sigtrap() from perf_pending_task() might observe event->ctx->task == TASK_TOMBSTONE. Swap the early exit tests in order not to hit WARN_ON_ONCE().

The per-CPU data section is handled differently than the other sections.
The memory allocations requires a special __percpu pointer and then the
section is copied into the view of each CPU. Therefore the SHF_ALLOC
flag is removed to ensure move_module() skips it.
Later, relocations are applied and apply_relocations() skips sections
without SHF_ALLOC because they have not been copied. This also skips the
per-CPU data section.
The missing relocations result in a NULL pointer on x86-64 and very
small values on x86-32. This results in a crash because it is not
skipped like NULL pointer would and can't be dereferenced.
Such an assignment happens during static per-CPU lock initialisation
with lockdep enabled.
Allow relocation processing for the per-CPU section even if SHF_ALLOC is
missing.

The function move_module() uses the variable t to track how many memory
types it has allocated and consequently how many should be freed if an
error occurs.
The variable is initially set to 0 and is updated when a call to
module_memory_alloc() fails. However, move_module() can fail for other
reasons as well, in which case t remains set to 0 and no memory is freed.
Fix the problem by initializing t to MOD_MEM_NUM_TYPES. Additionally, make
the deallocation loop more robust by not relying on the mod_mem_type_t enum
having a signed integer as its underlying type.
