Tetsuo Handa 93f1e16af4 binder: Don't use mmput() from shrinker function.
commit f867c771f98891841c217fa8459244ed0dd28921 upstream.

syzbot is reporting that mmput() from shrinker function has a risk of
deadlock [1], for delayed_uprobe_add() from update_ref_ctr() calls
kzalloc(GFP_KERNEL) with delayed_uprobe_lock held, and
uprobe_clear_state() from __mmput() also holds delayed_uprobe_lock.

Commit a1b2289cef92ef0e ("android: binder: drop lru lock in isolate
callback") replaced mmput() with mmput_async() in order to avoid sleeping
with spinlock held. But this patch replaces mmput() with mmput_async() in
order not to start __mmput() from shrinker context.

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.
