commit 8d7071af890768438c14db6172cc8f9f4d04e184 upstream.

This finishes the job of always holding the mmap write lock when
extending the user stack vma, and removes the 'write_locked' argument
from the vm helper functions again.

For some cases, we just avoid expanding the stack at all: drivers and
page pinning really shouldn't be extending any stacks.  Let's see if any
strange users really wanted that.

It's worth noting that architectures that weren't converted to the new
lock_mm_and_find_vma() helper function are left using the legacy
"expand_stack()" function, but it has been changed to drop the mmap_lock
and take it for writing while expanding the vma.  This makes it fairly
straightforward to convert the remaining architectures.

As a result of dropping and re-taking the lock, the calling conventions
for this function have also changed, since the old vma may no longer be
valid.  So it will now return the new vma if successful, and NULL - and
the lock dropped - if the area could not be extended.

commit f313c51d26aa87e69633c9b46efb37a930faca71 upstream.

This is a small step towards a model where GUP itself would not expand
the stack, and any user that needs GUP to not look up existing mappings,
but actually expand on them, would have to do so manually before-hand,
and with the mm lock held for writing.

It turns out that execve() already did almost exactly that, except it
didn't take the mm lock at all (it's single-threaded so no locking
technically needed, but it could cause lockdep errors).  And it only did
it for the CONFIG_STACK_GROWSUP case, since in that case GUP has
obviously never expanded the stack downwards.

So just make that CONFIG_STACK_GROWSUP case do the right thing with
locking, and enable it generally.  This will eventually help GUP, and in
the meantime avoids a special case and the lockdep issue.

<title>mm: make find_extend_vma() fail if write lock not held</title>

commit f440fa1ac955e2898893f9301568435eb5cdfc4b upstream.

Make calls to extend_vma() and find_extend_vma() fail if the write lock
is required.

To avoid making this a flag-day event, this still allows the old
read-locking case for the trivial situations, and passes in a flag to
say "is it write-locked".  That way write-lockers can say "yes, I'm
being careful", and legacy users will continue to work in all the common
cases until they have been fully converted to the new world order.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:

   F_SEAL_EXEC") which permits the setting of the memfd execute bit at
   memfd creation time, with the option of sealing the state of the X
   bit.

   regression in compaction via his series "Fix excessive CPU usage
   during compaction".

 - Jason Gunthorpe rationalized the GUP system's interface to the rest
   of the kernel in the series "Simplify the external interface for
   GUP".

 - SeongJae Park wishes to migrate people from DAMON's debugfs interface
   over to its sysfs interface. To support this, we'll temporarily be
   printing warnings when people use the debugfs interface. See the
   series "mm/damon: deprecate DAMON debugfs interface".

 - Andrey Konovalov provided the accurately named "lib/stackdepot: fixes
   and clean-ups" series.

   IPI rates with the series "migrate_pages(): batch TLB flushing".

   previously issued registrations.

 - Limit scheduler slice duration to the sysctl_sched_latency period, to
   improve scheduling granularity with a large number of SCHED_IDLE
   tasks.

 - Debuggability enhancement on sys_exit(): warn about disabled IRQs,
   but also enable them to prevent a cascade of followup problems and
   repeat warnings.

 - Fix the rescheduling logic in prio_changed_dl().

 - Micro-optimize cpufreq and sched-util methods.

 - Micro-optimize ttwu_runnable()

 - Micro-optimize the idle-scanning in update_numa_stats(),

Replace direct modifications to vma-&gt;vm_flags with calls to modifier
functions to be able to track flag changes and to keep vma locking
correctness.

<title>mm/mmap: don't use __vma_adjust() in shift_arg_pages()</title>

Introduce shrink_vma() which uses the vma_prepare() and vma_complete()
functions to reduce the vma coverage.

Convert shift_arg_pages() to use expand_vma() and the new shrink_vma()
function.  Remove support from __vma_adjust() to reduce a vma size since
shift_arg_pages() is the only user that shrinks a VMA in this way.

<content type='text'>
Use the abstracted locking and maple tree operations.  Since __split_vma()
is the only user of the __vma_adjust() function to use the insert
argument, drop that argument.  Remove the NULL passed through from
fs/exec's shift_arg_pages() and mremap() at the same time.

<content type='text'>
Change the vma_adjust() function definition to accept the vma iterator and
pass it through to __vma_adjust().

Update fs/exec to use the new vma_adjust() function parameters.

Update mm/mremap to use the new vma_adjust() function parameters.

Revert the __split_vma() calls back from __vma_adjust() to vma_adjust()
and pass through the vma iterator.

Use the vma iterator so that the iterator can be invalidated or updated to
avoid each caller doing so.
