Juri Lelli 224262583f cgroup/cpuset: Change cpuset_rwsem and hotplug lock order
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.
