Move remaining definitions and declarations from include/linux/bootmem.h
into include/linux/memblock.h and remove the redundant header.

The includes were replaced with the semantic patch below and then
semi-automated removal of duplicated '#include &lt;linux/memblock.h&gt;

<title>mm/kasan/quarantine.c: make quarantine_lock a raw_spinlock_t</title>

<id>026d1eaf5ef1a5d6258b46e4e411cd9f5ab8c41d</id>
<content type='text'>
The static lock quarantine_lock is used in quarantine.c to protect the
quarantine queue datastructures.  It is taken inside quarantine queue
manipulation routines (quarantine_put(), quarantine_reduce() and
quarantine_remove_cache()), with IRQs disabled.  This is not a problem on
a stock kernel but is problematic on an RT kernel where spin locks are
sleeping spinlocks, which can sleep and can not be acquired with disabled
interrupts.

Convert the quarantine_lock to a raw spinlock_t.  The usage of
quarantine_lock is confined to quarantine.c and the work performed while
the lock is held is used for debug purpose.

<title>kernel/memremap, kasan: make ZONE_DEVICE with work with KASAN</title>

<content type='text'>
KASAN learns about hotadded memory via the memory hotplug notifier.
devm_memremap_pages() intentionally skips calling memory hotplug
notifiers.  So KASAN doesn't know anything about new memory added by
devm_memremap_pages().  This causes a crash when KASAN tries to access
non-existent shadow memory:

KASAN learns about hotadded memory via the memory hotplug notifier.
devm_memremap_pages() intentionally skips calling memory hotplug
notifiers.  So KASAN doesn't know anything about new memory added by
devm_memremap_pages().  This causes a crash when KASAN tries to access
non-existent shadow memory:

There is a special case that the size is "(N &lt;&lt; KASAN_SHADOW_SCALE_SHIFT)
Pages plus X", the value of X is [1, KASAN_SHADOW_SCALE_SIZE-1].  The
operation "size &gt;&gt; KASAN_SHADOW_SCALE_SHIFT" will drop X, and the
roundup operation can not retrieve the missed one page.  For example:
size=0x28006, PAGE_SIZE=0x1000, KASAN_SHADOW_SCALE_SHIFT=3, we will get
shadow_size=0x5000, but actually we need 6 pages.

  shadow_size = round_up(size &gt;&gt; KASAN_SHADOW_SCALE_SHIFT, PAGE_SIZE);

This can lead to a kernel crash when kasan is enabled and the value of
mod-&gt;core_layout.size or mod-&gt;init_layout.size is like above.  Because
the shadow memory of X has not been allocated and mapped.

Using module_init() is wrong.  E.g.  ACPI adds and onlines memory before
our memory notifier gets registered.

This makes sure that ACPI memory detected during boot up will not result
in a kernel crash.

Easily reproducible with QEMU, just specify a DIMM when starting up.

<title>mm/kasan: don't vfree() nonexistent vm_area</title>

KASAN uses different routines to map shadow for hot added memory and
memory obtained in boot process.  Attempt to offline memory onlined by
normal boot process leads to this:

    Trying to vfree() nonexistent vm area (000000005d3b34b9)
    WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 13215 at mm/vmalloc.c:1525 __vunmap+0x147/0x190

     vfs_write+0x105/0x340
     SyS_write+0xb0/0x140

Obviously we can't call vfree() to free memory that wasn't allocated via
vmalloc().  Use find_vm_area() to see if we can call vfree().

Unfortunately it's a bit tricky to properly unmap and free shadow
allocated during boot, so we'll have to keep it.  If memory will come
online again that shadow will be reused.

Matthew asked: how can you call vfree() on something that isn't a
vmalloc address?

  vfree() is able to free any address returned by
  __vmalloc_node_range().  And __vmalloc_node_range() gives you any
  address you ask.  It doesn't have to be an address in [VMALLOC_START,
  VMALLOC_END] range.

  That's also how the module_alloc()/module_memfree() works on
  architectures that have designated area for modules.

<title>slab, slub: skip unnecessary kasan_cache_shutdown()</title>

<id>f9e13c0a5a33d1eaec374d6d4dab53a4f72756a0</id>
<content type='text'>
The kasan quarantine is designed to delay freeing slab objects to catch
use-after-free.  The quarantine can be large (several percent of machine
memory size).  When kmem_caches are deleted related objects are flushed
from the quarantine but this requires scanning the entire quarantine
which can be very slow.  We have seen the kernel busily working on this
while holding slab_mutex and badly affecting cache_reaper, slabinfo
readers and memcg kmem cache creations.

It can easily reproduced by following script:

	yes . | head -1000000 | xargs stat &gt; /dev/null
	for i in `seq 1 10`; do
		seq 500 | (cd /cg/memory &amp;&amp; xargs mkdir)
		seq 500 | xargs -I{} sh -c 'echo $BASHPID &gt; \
			/cg/memory/{}/tasks &amp;&amp; exec stat .' &gt; /dev/null
		seq 500 | (cd /cg/memory &amp;&amp; xargs rmdir)
	done

The busy stack:
    kasan_cache_shutdown
    shutdown_cache
    memcg_destroy_kmem_caches
    mem_cgroup_css_free
    css_free_rwork_fn
    process_one_work
    worker_thread
    kthread
    ret_from_fork

This patch is based on the observation that if the kmem_cache to be
destroyed is empty then there should not be any objects of this cache in
the quarantine.

Without the patch the script got stuck for couple of hours.  With the
patch the script completed within a second.

The kasan quarantine is designed to delay freeing slab objects to catch
use-after-free.  The quarantine can be large (several percent of machine
memory size).  When kmem_caches are deleted related objects are flushed
from the quarantine but this requires scanning the entire quarantine
which can be very slow.  We have seen the kernel busily working on this
while holding slab_mutex and badly affecting cache_reaper, slabinfo
readers and memcg kmem cache creations.

It can easily reproduced by following script:

	yes . | head -1000000 | xargs stat &gt; /dev/null
	for i in `seq 1 10`; do
		seq 500 | (cd /cg/memory &amp;&amp; xargs mkdir)
		seq 500 | xargs -I{} sh -c 'echo $BASHPID &gt; \
			/cg/memory/{}/tasks &amp;&amp; exec stat .' &gt; /dev/null
		seq 500 | (cd /cg/memory &amp;&amp; xargs rmdir)
	done

The busy stack:
    kasan_cache_shutdown
    shutdown_cache
    memcg_destroy_kmem_caches
    mem_cgroup_css_free
    css_free_rwork_fn
    process_one_work
    worker_thread
    kthread
    ret_from_fork

This patch is based on the observation that if the kmem_cache to be
destroyed is empty then there should not be any objects of this cache in
the quarantine.

Without the patch the script got stuck for couple of hours.  With the
patch the script completed within a second.
