Subject: [PATCH] mm: fix sleeping copy_huge_page called from atomic context
Date:   Fri, 22 Oct 2021 09:46:19 +0200
Message-Id: <20211022074619.57355-1-andrea.righi@canonical.com>

copy_huge_page() can be called with mapping->private_lock held from
__buffer_migrate_page() -> migrate_page_copy(), so it is not safe to
do a cond_resched() in this context.

Introduce migrate_page_copy_nowait() and copy_huge_page_nowait()
variants that can be used from an atomic context.

The downside of this change is that we may experience temporary soft
lockups when copying large huge pages in very slow systems, but this
allows to prevent potential deadlocks.
