In the CPU-offline process, it calls mmdrop() after idle entry and the
subsequent call to cpuhp_report_idle_dead(). Once execution passes the
call to rcu_report_dead(), RCU is ignoring the CPU, which results in
lockdep complaints when mmdrop() uses RCU from either memcg or
debugobjects, so it by scheduling mmdrop() on another online CPU.
According to the commit a79e53d85683 ("x86/mm: Fix pgd_lock deadlock"),
mmdrop() is not interrupt-safe, and called from
smp_call_function_single() could end up running mmdrop() from the IPI
interrupt handler.

Bah.. that's horrible. Surely we can find a better place to do this in
the whole hotplug machinery.
Perhaps you can have takedown_cpu() do the mmdrop()?

The problem is that no all arch_cpu_idle_dead() will call idle_task_exit(). For example, alpha and parisc are not, so it needs to deal with some kind of ifdef dance in takedown_cpu() to conditionally call mmdrop() which sounds even more horrible?
If you really prefer it anyway, maybe something like touching every arch’s __cpu_die() to also call mmdrop() depends on arches?
BTW, how to obtain the other CPU’s current task mm? Is that cpu_rq(cpu)->curr->active_mm?

How is that not broken? If the idle thread runs on an active_mm, we need
to drop that reference. This needs fixing regardless.

Something like this; except you'll need to go audit archs to make sure
they all call idle_task_exit() and/or put in comments on why they don't
have to (perhaps their bringup switches them to &init_mm unconditionally
and the switch_mm() is not required).

Damn, I am having a hard time to motivate myself to learn all about those two “dead“ arches from scratch. I suppose the first step we could put a dummy finish_cpu() for alpha and parisc if they don’t call idle_task_exit() in the first place anyway, so if it is a bug there it is another issue that could be dealt with in a separate patch later?

Or you could consult the maintainers of those architectures? There are regular pull requests for parisc still, and alpha still gets odd fixes.
It would have helped had you not trimmed the context so aggressively.
For those seeing this thread for the first time, try:

It turns out alpha does not support cpu hotplug (no CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU),
and parisc will use &init_mm for idle tasks of secondary CPUs as in,
smp_callin()
smp_cpu_init()
/* Initialise the idle task for this CPU */
mmgrab(&init_mm);
current->active_mm = &init_mm;
BUG_ON(current->mm);

I have to modify your code slightly (below) to pass compilation, but then it will
panic during cpu offline for some reasons,
