The synchronize_rcu() will be invoked in the perf_pmu_migrate_context(),
when migrating a PMU to a new CPU. However, the current for_each_iommu()
is within RCU read-side critical section.
Two methods were considered to fix the issue.
- Use the dmar_global_lock to replace the RCU read lock when going
through the drhd list. But it triggers a lockdep warning.
- Use the cpuhp_setup_state_multi() to set up a dedicated state for each
IOMMU PMU. The lock can be avoided.
The latter method is implemented in this patch. Since each IOMMU PMU has
a dedicated state, add cpuhp_node and cpu in struct iommu_pmu to track
the state. The state can be dynamically allocated now. Remove the
CPUHP_AP_PERF_X86_IOMMU_PERF_ONLINE.

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.
