mm/kmemleak: turn kmemleak_lock and object->lock to raw_spinlock_t
[ Upstream commit 8c96f1bc6fc49c724c4cdd22d3e99260263b7384 ] kmemleak_lock as a rwlock on RT can possibly be acquired in atomic context which does work. Since the kmemleak operation is performed in atomic context make it a raw_spinlock_t so it can also be acquired on RT. This is used for debugging and is not enabled by default in a production like environment (where performance/latency matters) so it makes sense to make it a raw_spinlock_t instead trying to get rid of the atomic context. Turn also the kmemleak_object->lock into raw_spinlock_t which is acquired (nested) while the kmemleak_lock is held. The time spent in "echo scan > kmemleak" slightly improved on 64core box with this patch applied after boot. [bigeasy@linutronix.de: redo the description, update comments. Merge the individual bits: He Zhe did the kmemleak_lock, Liu Haitao the ->lock and Yongxin Liu forwarded Liu's patch.] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20191219170834.4tah3prf2gdothz4@linutronix.de Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20181218150744.GB20197@arrakis.emea.arm.com Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/1542877459-144382-1-git-send-email-zhe.he@windriver.com Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190927082230.34152-1-yongxin.liu@windriver.com Signed-off-by:He Zhe <zhe.he@windriver.com> Signed-off-by:
