Subject: bpf: fix lockdep splat

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com>


[ Upstream commit 89ad2fa3f043a1e8daae193bcb5fe34d5f8caf28 ]

pcpu_freelist_pop() needs the same lockdep awareness than
pcpu_freelist_populate() to avoid a false positive.

 [ INFO: SOFTIRQ-safe -> SOFTIRQ-unsafe lock order detected ]

 switchto-defaul/12508 [HC0[0]:SC0[6]:HE0:SE0] is trying to acquire:
  (&htab->buckets[i].lock){......}, at: [<ffffffff9dc099cb>] __htab_percpu_map_update_elem+0x1cb/0x300

 and this task is already holding:
  (dev_queue->dev->qdisc_class ?: &qdisc_tx_lock#2){+.-...}, at: [<ffffffff9e135848>] __dev_queue_xmit+0
x868/0x1240
 which would create a new lock dependency:
  (dev_queue->dev->qdisc_class ?: &qdisc_tx_lock#2){+.-...} -> (&htab->buckets[i].lock){......}

 but this new dependency connects a SOFTIRQ-irq-safe lock:
  (dev_queue->dev->qdisc_class ?: &qdisc_tx_lock#2){+.-...}
 ... which became SOFTIRQ-irq-safe at:
   [<ffffffff9db5931b>] __lock_acquire+0x42b/0x1f10

 to a SOFTIRQ-irq-unsafe lock:

 other info that might help us debug this:

 Chain exists of:
   dev_queue->dev->qdisc_class ?: &qdisc_tx_lock#2 --> &htab->buckets[i].lock --> &head->lock

  Possible interrupt unsafe locking scenario:

        CPU0                    CPU1
        ----                    ----
   lock(&head->lock);
                                local_irq_disable();
                                lock(dev_queue->dev->qdisc_class ?: &qdisc_tx_lock#2);
                                lock(&htab->buckets[i].lock);
   <Interrupt>
     lock(dev_queue->dev->qdisc_class ?: &qdisc_tx_lock#2);
