If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: David Hildenbrand (Arm) [ Upstream commit 500624f28eca441e35f978979ccfb373202fefd3 ] When offlining a node's last memory empties its tier, clear_node_memory_tier() calls device_unregister() while holding memory_tier_lock. A concurrent sysfs read can hold a kernfs active reference and block in nodelist_show() on that mutex. device_unregister() then waits in kernfs_drain() for the read to finish and release its active reference, while the reader waits for the offlining task to release the mutex. Return the node's former tier from clear_node_memory_tier(), making the helper more similar to set_node_memory_tier(), which also returns a memory_tier pointer. Let the caller unlink an empty tier under memory_tier_lock before rebuilding demotion targets, then unregister its device after dropping the lock.
