fill_balloon doing memory allocations under balloon_lock
can cause a deadlock when leak_balloon is called from
virtballoon_oom_notify and tries to take same lock.

To fix, split page allocation and enqueue and do allocations outside the lock.

Here's a detailed analysis of the deadlock by Tetsuo Handa:

In leak_balloon(), mutex_lock(&amp;vb-&gt;balloon_lock) is called in order to
serialize against fill_balloon(). But in fill_balloon(),
alloc_page(GFP_HIGHUSER[_MOVABLE] | __GFP_NOMEMALLOC | __GFP_NORETRY) is
called with vb-&gt;balloon_lock mutex held. Since GFP_HIGHUSER[_MOVABLE]
implies __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM | __GFP_IO | __GFP_FS, despite __GFP_NORETRY
is specified, this allocation attempt might indirectly depend on somebody
else's __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM memory allocation. And such indirect
__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM memory allocation might call leak_balloon() via
virtballoon_oom_notify() via blocking_notifier_call_chain() callback via
out_of_memory() when it reached __alloc_pages_may_oom() and held oom_lock
mutex. Since vb-&gt;balloon_lock mutex is already held by fill_balloon(), it
will cause OOM lockup.

<title>mm/migrate: new migrate mode MIGRATE_SYNC_NO_COPY</title>

<id>2916ecc0f9d435d849c98f4da50e453124c87531</id>
<content type='text'>
Introduce a new migration mode that allow to offload the copy to a device
DMA engine.  This changes the workflow of migration and not all
address_space migratepage callback can support this.

This is intended to be use by migrate_vma() which itself is use for thing
like HMM (see include/linux/hmm.h).

No additional per-filesystem migratepage testing is needed.  I disables
MIGRATE_SYNC_NO_COPY in all problematic migratepage() callback and i
added comment in those to explain why (part of this patch).  The commit
message is unclear it should say that any callback that wish to support
this new mode need to be aware of the difference in the migration flow
from other mode.

Some of these callbacks do extra locking while copying (aio, zsmalloc,
balloon, ...) and for DMA to be effective you want to copy multiple
pages in one DMA operations.  But in the problematic case you can not
easily hold the extra lock accross multiple call to this callback.

Usual flow is:

For each page {
 1 - lock page
 2 - call migratepage() callback
 3 - (extra locking in some migratepage() callback)
 4 - migrate page state (freeze refcount, update page cache, buffer
     head, ...)
 5 - copy page
 6 - (unlock any extra lock of migratepage() callback)
 7 - return from migratepage() callback
 8 - unlock page
}

The new mode MIGRATE_SYNC_NO_COPY:
 1 - lock multiple pages
For each page {
 2 - call migratepage() callback
 3 - abort in all problematic migratepage() callback
 4 - migrate page state (freeze refcount, update page cache, buffer
     head, ...)
} // finished all calls to migratepage() callback
 5 - DMA copy multiple pages
 6 - unlock all the pages

To support MIGRATE_SYNC_NO_COPY in the problematic case we would need a
new callback migratepages() (for instance) that deals with multiple
pages in one transaction.

Because the problematic cases are not important for current usage I did
not wanted to complexify this patchset even more for no good reason.

<title>mm/balloon_compaction.c: don't zero ballooned pages</title>

<content type='text'>
Revert commit bb01b64cfab7 ("mm/balloon_compaction.c: enqueue zero page
to balloon device")'

Zeroing ballon pages is rather time consuming, especially when a lot of
pages are in flight. E.g. 7GB worth of ballooned memory takes 2.8s with
__GFP_ZERO while it takes ~491ms without it.

The original commit argued that zeroing will help ksmd to merge these
pages on the host but this argument is assuming that the host actually
marks balloon pages for ksm which is not universally true.  So we pay
performance penalty for something that even might not be used in the end
which is wrong.  The host can zero out pages on its own when there is a
need.

<content type='text'>
Now, VM has a feature to migrate non-lru movable pages so balloon
doesn't need custom migration hooks in migrate.c and compaction.c.

Instead, this patch implements the page-&gt;mapping-&gt;a_ops-&gt;
{isolate|migrate|putback} functions.

With that, we could remove hooks for ballooning in general migration
functions and make balloon compaction simple.

In balloon_page_dequeue, pages_lock should cover the loop
(ie, list_for_each_entry_safe). Otherwise, the cursor page could
be isolated by compaction and then list_del by isolation could
poison the page-&gt;lru.{prev,next} so the loop finally could
access wrong address like this. This patch fixes the bug.

<title>mm: page migration trylock newpage at same level as oldpage</title>

<id>7db7671f835ccad66db20154ac1274140937d9b7</id>
<content type='text'>
Clean up page migration a little by moving the trylock of newpage from
move_to_new_page() into __unmap_and_move(), where the old page has been
locked.  Adjust unmap_and_move_huge_page() and balloon_page_migrate()
accordingly.

But make one kind-of-functional change on the way: whereas trylock of
newpage used to BUG() if it failed, now simply return -EAGAIN if so.
Cutting out BUG()s is good, right?  But, to be honest, this is really to
extend the usefulness of the custom put_new_page feature, allowing a pool
of new pages to be shared perhaps with racing uses.

Use an "else" instead of that "skip_unmap" label.
