Peter Zijlstra b972216e27 mmu_notifier: add call_srcu and sync function for listener to delay call and sync ... When kernel device drivers or subsystems want to bind their lifespan to t= he lifespan of the mm_struct, they usually use one of the following methods: 1. Manually calling a function in the interested kernel module. The funct= ion call needs to be placed in mmput. This method was rejected by several ker= nel maintainers. 2. Registering to the mmu notifier release mechanism. The problem with the latter approach is that the mmu_notifier_release cal= lback is called from__mmu_notifier_release (called from exit_mmap). That functi= on iterates over the list of mmu notifiers and don't expect the release call= back function to remove itself from the list. Therefore, the callback function= in the kernel module can't release the mmu_notifier_object, which is actuall= y the kernel module's object itself. As a result, the destruction of the kernel module's object must to be done in a delayed fashion. This patch adds support for this delayed callback, by adding a new mmu_notifier_call_srcu function that receives a function ptr and calls th= at function with call_srcu. In that function, the kernel module releases its object. To use mmu_notifier_call_srcu, the calling module needs to call b= efore that a new function called mmu_notifier_unregister_no_release that as its= name implies, unregisters a notifier without calling its notifier release call= back. This patch also adds a function that will call barrier_srcu so those kern= el modules can sync with mmu_notifier.
