blk-mq: fix sysfs registration/unregistration race
There is a race between cpu hotplug handling and adding/deleting
gendisk for blk-mq, where both are trying to register and unregister
the same sysfs entries.
null_add_dev
--> blk_mq_init_queue
--> blk_mq_init_allocated_queue
--> add to 'all_q_list' (*)
--> add_disk
--> blk_register_queue
--> blk_mq_register_disk (++)
null_del_dev
--> del_gendisk
--> blk_unregister_queue
--> blk_mq_unregister_disk (--)
--> blk_cleanup_queue
--> blk_mq_free_queue
--> del from 'all_q_list' (*)
blk_mq_queue_reinit
--> blk_mq_sysfs_unregister (-)
--> blk_mq_sysfs_register (+)
While the request queue is added to 'all_q_list' (*),
blk_mq_queue_reinit() can be called for the queue anytime by CPU
hotplug callback. But blk_mq_sysfs_unregister (-) and
blk_mq_sysfs_register (+) in blk_mq_queue_reinit must not be called
before blk_mq_register_disk (++) and after blk_mq_unregister_disk (--)
is finished. Because '/sys/block/*/mq/' is not exists.
There has already been BLK_MQ_F_SYSFS_UP flag in hctx->flags which can
be used to track these sysfs stuff, but it is only fixing this issue
partially.
In order to fix it completely, we just need per-queue flag instead of
per-hctx flag with appropriate locking. So this introduces
q->mq_sysfs_init_done which is properly protected with all_q_mutex.
Also, we need to ensure that blk_mq_map_swqueue() is called with
all_q_mutex is held. Since hctx->nr_ctx is reset temporarily and
updated in blk_mq_map_swqueue(), so we should avoid
blk_mq_register_hctx() seeing the temporary hctx->nr_ctx value
in CPU hotplug handling or adding/deleting gendisk .
