Liam R. Howlett 2128f7c00f maple_tree: fix write memory barrier of nodes once dead for RCU mode 
[ Upstream commit c13af03de4 ]

During the development of the maple tree, the strategy of freeing multiple
nodes changed and, in the process, the pivots were reused to store
pointers to dead nodes.  To ensure the readers see accurate pivots, the
writers need to mark the nodes as dead and call smp_wmb() to ensure any
readers can identify the node as dead before using the pivot values.

There were two places where the old method of marking the node as dead
without smp_wmb() were being used, which resulted in RCU readers seeing
the wrong pivot value before seeing the node was dead.  Fix this race
condition by using mte_set_node_dead() which has the smp_wmb() call to
ensure the race is closed.

Add a WARN_ON() to the ma_free_rcu() call to ensure all nodes being freed
are marked as dead to ensure there are no other call paths besides the two
updated paths.

This is necessary for the RCU mode of the maple tree.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
