commit 60f92acb60a989b14e4b744501a0df0f82ef30a3 upstream. Patch series "fs/proc: do_task_stat: use sig->stats_". do_task_stat() has the same problem as getrusage() had before "getrusage: use sig->stats_lock rather than lock_task_sighand()": a hard lockup. If NR_CPUS threads call lock_task_sighand() at the same time and the process has NR_THREADS, spin_lock_irq will spin with irqs disabled O(NR_CPUS * NR_THREADS) time. This patch (of 3): thread_group_cputime() does its own locking, we can safely shift thread_group_cputime_adjusted() which does another for_each_thread loop outside of ->siglock protected section. Not only this removes for_each_thread() from the critical section with irqs disabled, this removes another case when stats_lock is taken with siglock held. We want to remove this dependency, then we can change the users of stats_lock to not disable irqs.

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.
