Sumanth Korikkar 4666f003af mm/memory_hotplug: add missing mem_hotplug_lock 
[ Upstream commit 001002e737 ]

From Documentation/core-api/memory-hotplug.rst:
When adding/removing/onlining/offlining memory or adding/removing
heterogeneous/device memory, we should always hold the mem_hotplug_lock
in write mode to serialise memory hotplug (e.g. access to global/zone
variables).

mhp_(de)init_memmap_on_memory() functions can change zone stats and
struct page content, but they are currently called w/o the
mem_hotplug_lock.

When memory block is being offlined and when kmemleak goes through each
populated zone, the following theoretical race conditions could occur:
CPU 0:					     | CPU 1:
memory_offline()			     |
-> offline_pages()			     |
	-> mem_hotplug_begin()		     |
	   ...				     |
	-> mem_hotplug_done()		     |
					     | kmemleak_scan()
					     | -> get_online_mems()
					     |    ...
-> mhp_deinit_memmap_on_memory()	     |
  [not protected by mem_hotplug_begin/done()]|
  Marks memory section as offline,	     |   Retrieves zone_start_pfn
  poisons vmemmap struct pages and updates   |   and struct page members.
  the zone related data			     |
   					     |    ...
   					     | -> put_online_mems()

Fix this by ensuring mem_hotplug_lock is taken before performing
mhp_init_memmap_on_memory().  Also ensure that
mhp_deinit_memmap_on_memory() holds the lock.

online/offline_pages() are currently only called from
memory_block_online/offline(), so it is safe to move the locking there.

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.
