From: Thomas Gleixner <[email protected]>
With enabled threaded interrupts the nouveau driver reported the
following:
| Chain exists of:
| &mm->mmap_lock#2 --> &device->mutex --> &cpuset_rwsem
|
| Possible unsafe locking scenario:
|
| CPU0 CPU1
| ---- ----
| lock(&cpuset_rwsem);
| lock(&device->mutex);
| lock(&cpuset_rwsem);
| lock(&mm->mmap_lock#2);
The device->mutex is nvkm_device::mutex.
Unblocking the lockchain at `cpuset_rwsem' is probably the easiest thing
to do.
Move the priority assignment to the start of the newly created thread.
Fixes: 710da3c8ea7df ("sched/core: Prevent race condition between cpuset and
__sched_setscheduler()")
