commit d74b27d63a8bebe2fe634944e4ebdc7b10db7a39 upstream. commit 1243dc518c9da ("cgroup/cpuset: Convert cpuset_mutex to percpu_rwsem") is performance patch which is not backport. So convert percpu_rwsem to cpuset_mutex. commit aa44002e7db25 ("cpuset: Fix unsafe lock order between cpuset lock and cpuslock") makes lock order keep cpuset_mutex ->cpu_hotplug_lock. We should change lock order in cpuset_attach. original commit message: cpuset_rwsem is going to be acquired from sched_setscheduler() with a following patch. There are however paths (e.g., spawn_ksoftirqd) in which sched_scheduler() is eventually called while holding hotplug lock; this creates a dependecy between hotplug lock (to be always acquired first) and cpuset_rwsem (to be always acquired after hotplug lock). Fix paths which currently take the two locks in the wrong order (after a following patch is applied).

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. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
