      vmalloc: remove BUG_ON due to racy counting of VM_LAZY_FREE · 88f50044
      Yongseok Koh authored
      In free_unmap_area_noflush(), va->flags is marked as VM_LAZY_FREE first, and
      then vmap_lazy_nr is increased atomically.
      
      But, in __purge_vmap_area_lazy(), while traversing of vmap_are_list, nr
      is counted by checking VM_LAZY_FREE is set to va->flags.  After counting
      the variable nr, kernel reads vmap_lazy_nr atomically and checks a
      BUG_ON condition whether nr is greater than vmap_lazy_nr to prevent
      vmap_lazy_nr from being negative.
      
      The problem is that, if interrupted right after marking VM_LAZY_FREE,
      increment of vmap_lazy_nr can be delayed.  Consequently, BUG_ON
      condition can be met because nr is counted more than vmap_lazy_nr.
      
      It is highly probable when vmalloc/vfree are called frequently.  This
      scenario have been verified by adding delay between marking VM_LAZY_FREE
      and increasing vmap_lazy_nr in free_unmap_area_noflush().
      
      Even the vmap_lazy_nr is for checking high watermark, it never be the
      strict watermark.  Although the BUG_ON condition is to prevent
      vmap_lazy_nr from being negative, vmap_lazy_nr is signed variable.  So,
      it could go down to negative value temporarily.
      
      Consequently, removing the BUG_ON condition is proper.
      
      A possible BUG_ON message is like the below.
