[PATCH 4.4 117/137] dump_stack: avoid potential deadlocks

[Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>]

4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com>

commit d7ce36924344ace0dbdc855b1206cacc46b36d45 upstream.

Some servers experienced fatal deadlocks because of a combination of
bugs, leading to multiple cpus calling dump_stack().

The checksumming bug was fixed in commit 34ae6a1aa054 ("ipv6: update
skb->csum when CE mark is propagated").

The second problem is a faulty locking in dump_stack()

CPU1 runs in process context and calls dump_stack(), grabs dump_lock.

   CPU2 receives a TCP packet under softirq, grabs socket spinlock, and
   call dump_stack() from netdev_rx_csum_fault().

   dump_stack() spins on atomic_cmpxchg(&dump_lock, -1, 2), since
   dump_lock is owned by CPU1

While dumping its stack, CPU1 is interrupted by a softirq, and happens
to process a packet for the TCP socket locked by CPU2.

CPU1 spins forever in spin_lock() : deadlock

Stack trace on CPU1 looked like :

    NMI backtrace for cpu 1
    RIP: _raw_spin_lock+0x25/0x30
