[ Upstream commit 93b73858701fd01de26a4a874eb95f9b7156fd4b ]
cpu_cgroup_css_online() calls cpu_util_update_eff() without holding the
uclamp_mutex or rcu_read_lock() like other call sites, which is
a mistake.
The uclamp_mutex is required to protect against concurrent reads and
writes that could update the cgroup hierarchy.
The rcu_read_lock() is required to traverse the cgroup data structures
in cpu_util_update_eff().
Surround the caller with the required locks and add some asserts to
better document the dependency in cpu_util_update_eff().

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.
