commit aac8a59537dfc704ff344f1aacfd143c089ee20f upstream.

This reverts commit ca10d851b9ad0338c19e8e3089e24d565ebfffd7.

The commit allowed workqueue_apply_unbound_cpumask() to clear __WQ_ORDERED
on now removed implicitly ordered workqueues. This was incorrect in that
system-wide config change shouldn't break ordering properties of all
workqueues. The reason why apply_workqueue_attrs() path was allowed to do so
was because it was targeting the specific workqueue - either the workqueue
had WQ_SYSFS set or the workqueue user specifically tried to change
max_active, both of which indicate that the workqueue doesn't need to be
ordered.

The implicitly ordered workqueue promotion was removed by the previous
commit 3bc1e711c26b ("workqueue: Don't implicitly make UNBOUND workqueues w/
@max_active==1 ordered"). However, it didn't update this path and broke
build. Let's revert the commit which was incorrect in the first place which
also fixes build.

<title>workqueue: Make sure that wq_unbound_cpumask is never empty</title>

During boot, depending on how the housekeeping and workqueue.unbound_cpus
masks are set, wq_unbound_cpumask can end up empty. Since 8639ecebc9b1
("workqueue: Implement non-strict affinity scope for unbound workqueues"),
this may end up feeding -1 as a CPU number into scheduler leading to oopses.

  BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffffff8305e9c0

An empty wq_unbound_cpumask is a clear misconfiguration and already
disallowed once system is booted up. Let's warn on and ignore
unbound_cpumask restrictions which lead to no unbound cpus. While at it,
also remove now unncessary empty check on wq_unbound_cpumask in
wq_select_unbound_cpu().

     consolidation of the 'crashkernel=' kernel parameter handling

   - After much discussion, David Laight's 'minmax: Relax type checks in

     the use of min_t() and max_t()

__read_mostly predates __ro_after_init. Many variables which are marked
__read_mostly should have been __ro_after_init from day 1.

Also, mark some stuff as "const" and "__init" while I'm at it.

<title>workqueue: Provide one lock class key per work_on_cpu() callsite</title>

<id>urn:sha1:265f3ed077036f053981f5eea0b5b43e7c5b39ff</id>
<content type='text'>
All callers of work_on_cpu() share the same lock class key for all the
functions queued. As a result the workqueue related locking scenario for
a function A may be spuriously accounted as an inversion against the
locking scenario of function B such as in the following model:

	long A(void *arg)
	{
		mutex_lock(&amp;mutex);
		mutex_unlock(&amp;mutex);
	}

	long B(void *arg)
	{
	}

	void launchA(void)
	{
		work_on_cpu(0, A, NULL);
	}

	void launchB(void)
	{
		mutex_lock(&amp;mutex);
		work_on_cpu(1, B, NULL);
		mutex_unlock(&amp;mutex);
	}

launchA and launchB running concurrently have no chance to deadlock.
However the above can be reported by lockdep as a possible locking
inversion because the works containing A() and B() are treated as
belonging to the same locking class.

The following shows an existing example of such a spurious lockdep splat:

setting "id_buf" to size 23 will silence the warning, since GCC

Commit 5c0338c68706 ("workqueue: restore WQ_UNBOUND/max_active==1
to be ordered") enabled implicit ordered attribute to be added to
WQ_UNBOUND workqueues with max_active of 1. This prevented the changing
of attributes to these workqueues leading to fix commit 0a94efb5acbb
("workqueue: implicit ordered attribute should be overridable").

However, workqueue_apply_unbound_cpumask() was not updated at that time.
So sysfs changes to wq_unbound_cpumask has no effect on WQ_UNBOUND
workqueues with implicit ordered attribute. Since not all WQ_UNBOUND
workqueues are visible on sysfs, we are not able to make all the
necessary cpumask changes even if we iterates all the workqueue cpumasks
in sysfs and changing them one by one.

Fix this problem by applying the corresponding change made
to apply_workqueue_attrs_locked() in the fix commit to
workqueue_apply_unbound_cpumask().

Currently, the kfree() be used for pwq objects allocated with
kmem_cache_alloc() in alloc_and_link_pwqs(), this isn't wrong.
but usually, use "trace_kmem_cache_alloc/trace_kmem_cache_free"
to track memory allocation and free. this commit therefore use
kmem_cache_free() instead of kfree() in alloc_and_link_pwqs()
and also consistent with release of the pwq in rcu_free_pwq().

Currently, for UNBOUND wq, if the apply_wqattrs_prepare() return error,
the apply_wqattr_cleanup() will be called and use the pwq_release_worker
kthread to release resources asynchronously. however, the kfree(wq) is
invoked directly in failure path of alloc_workqueue(), if the kfree(wq)
has been executed and when the pwq_release_workfn() accesses wq, this
leads to the following scenario:

This commit therefore flush pwq_release_worker in the alloc_and_link_pwqs()
before invoke kfree(wq).

Currently, if the wq_cpu_intensive_thresh_us is set to specific
value, will cause the wq_cpu_intensive_thresh_init() early exit
and missed creation of pwq_release_worker. this commit therefore
create the pwq_release_worker in advance before checking the
wq_cpu_intensive_thresh_us.
