Replace the internal interval tree based mmu notifier with the new common
mmu_interval_notifier_insert() API. This removes a lot of code and fixes a
deadlock that can be triggered in ODP:
zap_page_range()
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start()
[..]
ib_umem_notifier_invalidate_range_start()
down_read(&per_mm->umem_rwsem)
unmap_single_vma()
[..]
__split_huge_page_pmd()
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start()
[..]
ib_umem_notifier_invalidate_range_start()
down_read(&per_mm->umem_rwsem) // DEADLOCK
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end()
up_read(&per_mm->umem_rwsem)
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end()
up_read(&per_mm->umem_rwsem)
The umem_rwsem is held across the range_start/end as the ODP algorithm for
invalidate_range_end cannot tolerate changes to the interval
tree. However, due to the nested invalidation regions the second
down_read() can deadlock if there are competing writers. The new core code
provides an alternative scheme to solve this problem.
