[ Upstream commit ff51ff84d82aea5a889b85f2b9fb3aa2b8691668 ] While seemingly harmless, __sched_fork() does hrtimer_init(), which, when DEBUG_OBJETS, can end up doing allocations. This then results in the following lock order: rq->lock zone->lock.rlock batched_entropy_u64.lock Which in turn causes deadlocks when we do wakeups while holding that batched_entropy lock -- as the random code does. Solve this by moving __sched_fork() out from under rq->lock. This is safe because nothing there relies on rq->lock, as also evident from the other __sched_fork() callsite.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. 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.
