Currently, when mounting pstore file system, a read callback of efi_pstore driver runs mutiple times as below. - In the first read callback, scan efivar_sysfs_list from head and pass a kmsg buffer of a entry to an upper pstore layer. - In the second read callback, rescan efivar_sysfs_list from the entry and pass another kmsg buffer to it. - Repeat the scan and pass until the end of efivar_sysfs_list. In this process, an entry is read across the multiple read function calls. To avoid race between the read and erasion, the whole process above is protected by a spinlock, holding in open() and releasing in close(). At the same time, kmemdup() is called to pass the buffer to pstore filesystem during it. And then, it causes a following lockdep warning. To make the dynamic memory allocation runnable without taking spinlock, holding off a deletion of sysfs entry if it happens while scanning it via efi_pstore, and deleting it after the scan is completed. To implement it, this patch introduces two flags, scanning and deleting, to efivar_entry. On the code basis, it seems that all the scanning and deleting logic is not needed because __efivars->lock are not dropped when reading from the EFI variable store. But, the scanning and deleting logic is still needed because an efi-pstore and a pstore filesystem works as follows. In case an entry(A) is found, the pointer is saved to psi->data. And efi_pstore_read() passes the entry(A) to a pstore filesystem by releasing __efivars->lock. And then, the pstore filesystem calls efi_pstore_read() again and the same entry(A), which is saved to psi->data, is used for resuming to scan a sysfs-list. So, to protect the entry(A), the logic is needed.
