Andrew Yang f872672edd zsmalloc: fix races between modifications of fullness and isolated
[ Upstream commit 4b5d1e47b69426c0f7491d97d73ad0152d02d437 ]

We encountered many kernel exceptions of VM_BUG_ON(zspage->isolated ==
0) in dec_zspage_isolation() and BUG_ON(!pages[1]) in zs_unmap_object()
lately.  This issue only occurs when migration and reclamation occur at
the same time.

With our memory stress test, we can reproduce this issue several times
a day.  We have no idea why no one else encountered this issue.  BTW,
we switched to the new kernel version with this defect a few months
ago.

Since fullness and isolated share the same unsigned int, modifications of
them should be protected by the same lock.

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.
