slab: fix the DEADLOCK issue on l3 alien lock

DEADLOCK will be report while running a kernel with NUMA and LOCKDEP enabled,
the process of this fake report is:

	   kmem_cache_free()	//free obj in cachep
	-> cache_free_alien()	//acquire cachep's l3 alien lock
	-> __drain_alien_cache()
	-> free_block()
	-> slab_destroy()
	-> kmem_cache_free()	//free slab in cachep->slabp_cache
	-> cache_free_alien()	//acquire cachep->slabp_cache's l3 alien lock

Since the cachep and cachep->slabp_cache's l3 alien are in the same lock class,
fake report generated.

This should not happen since we already have init_lock_keys() which will
reassign the lock class for both l3 list and l3 alien.

However, init_lock_keys() was invoked at a wrong position which is before we
invoke enable_cpucache() on each cache.

Since until set slab_state to be FULL, we won't invoke enable_cpucache()
on caches to build their l3 alien while creating them, so although we invoked
init_lock_keys(), the l3 alien lock class won't change since we don't have
them until invoked enable_cpucache() later.

This patch will invoke init_lock_keys() after we done enable_cpucache()
instead of before to avoid the fake DEADLOCK report.

Michael traced the problem back to a commit in release 3.0.0:

The node field is always page_to_nid(c->page). So its rather easy to

due to the need to shift the bits from page->flags. However, that is mostly
compensated for by a smaller footprint of the kmem_cache_cpu structure (this
patch reduces that to 3 words per cache) which allows better caching.

mm: sl[au]b: add knowledge of PFMEMALLOC reserve pages

When a user or administrator requires swap for their application, they
create a swap partition and file, format it with mkswap and activate it
with swapon.  Swap over the network is considered as an option in diskless
systems.  The two likely scenarios are when blade servers are used as part
of a cluster where the form factor or maintenance costs do not allow the
use of disks and thin clients.

The Linux Terminal Server Project recommends the use of the Network Block
Device (NBD) for swap according to the manual at
https://sourceforge.net/projects/ltsp/files/Docs-Admin-Guide/LTSPManual.pdf/download
There is also documentation and tutorials on how to setup swap over NBD at
places like https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP/EnableNBDSWAP The
nbd-client also documents the use of NBD as swap.  Despite this, the fact
is that a machine using NBD for swap can deadlock within minutes if swap
is used intensively.  This patch series addresses the problem.

The core issue is that network block devices do not use mempools like
normal block devices do.  As the host cannot control where they receive
packets from, they cannot reliably work out in advance how much memory
they might need.  Some years ago, Peter Zijlstra developed a series of
patches that supported swap over an NFS that at least one distribution is
carrying within their kernels.  This patch series borrows very heavily
from Peter's work to support swapping over NBD as a pre-requisite to
supporting swap-over-NFS.  The bulk of the complexity is concerned with
preserving memory that is allocated from the PFMEMALLOC reserves for use
by the network layer which is needed for both NBD and NFS.

Patch 1 adds knowledge of the PFMEMALLOC reserves to SLAB and SLUB to
	preserve access to pages allocated under low memory situations
	to callers that are freeing memory.

Patch 2 optimises the SLUB fast path to avoid pfmemalloc checks

Patch 3 introduces __GFP_MEMALLOC to allow access to the PFMEMALLOC
	reserves without setting PFMEMALLOC.

Patch 4 opens the possibility for softirqs to use PFMEMALLOC reserves
	for later use by network packet processing.

Patch 5 only sets page->pfmemalloc when ALLOC_NO_WATERMARKS was required

Patch 6 ignores memory policies when ALLOC_NO_WATERMARKS is set.

Patches 7-12 allows network processing to use PFMEMALLOC reserves when
	the socket has been marked as being used by the VM to clean pages. If
	packets are received and stored in pages that were allocated under
	low-memory situations and are unrelated to the VM, the packets
	are dropped.

	Patch 11 reintroduces __skb_alloc_page which the networking
	folk may object to but is needed in some cases to propogate
	pfmemalloc from a newly allocated page to an skb. If there is a
	strong objection, this patch can be dropped with the impact being
	that swap-over-network will be slower in some cases but it should
	not fail.

Patch 13 is a micro-optimisation to avoid a function call in the
	common case.

Patch 14 tags NBD sockets as being SOCK_MEMALLOC so they can use
	PFMEMALLOC if necessary.

Patch 15 notes that it is still possible for the PFMEMALLOC reserve
	to be depleted. To prevent this, direct reclaimers get throttled on
	a waitqueue if 50% of the PFMEMALLOC reserves are depleted.  It is
	expected that kswapd and the direct reclaimers already running
	will clean enough pages for the low watermark to be reached and
	the throttled processes are woken up.

Patch 16 adds a statistic to track how often processes get throttled

Some basic performance testing was run using kernel builds, netperf on
loopback for UDP and TCP, hackbench (pipes and sockets), iozone and
sysbench.  Each of them were expected to use the sl*b allocators
reasonably heavily but there did not appear to be significant performance
variances.

For testing swap-over-NBD, a machine was booted with 2G of RAM with a
swapfile backed by NBD.  8*NUM_CPU processes were started that create
anonymous memory mappings and read them linearly in a loop.  The total
size of the mappings were 4*PHYSICAL_MEMORY to use swap heavily under
memory pressure.

Without the patches and using SLUB, the machine locks up within minutes
and runs to completion with them applied.  With SLAB, the story is
different as an unpatched kernel run to completion.  However, the patched
kernel completed the test 45% faster.

This patch: mm: sl[au]b: add knowledge of PFMEMALLOC reserve pages

Allocations of pages below the min watermark run a risk of the machine
hanging due to a lack of memory.  To prevent this, only callers who have
PF_MEMALLOC or TIF_MEMDIE set and are not processing an interrupt are
allowed to allocate with ALLOC_NO_WATERMARKS.  Once they are allocated to
a slab though, nothing prevents other callers consuming free objects
within those slabs.  This patch limits access to slab pages that were
alloced from the PFMEMALLOC reserves.

When this patch is applied, pages allocated from below the low watermark
are returned with page->pfmemalloc set and it is up to the caller to
determine how the page should be protected.  SLAB restricts access to any
page with page->pfmemalloc set to callers which are known to able to
access the PFMEMALLOC reserve.  If one is not available, an attempt is
made to allocate a new page rather than use a reserve.  SLUB is a bit more
relaxed in that it only records if the current per-CPU page was allocated
from PFMEMALLOC reserve and uses another partial slab if the caller does
not have the necessary GFP or process flags.  This was found to be
sufficient in tests to avoid hangs due to SLUB generally maintaining
smaller lists than SLAB.

In low-memory conditions it does mean that !PFMEMALLOC allocators can fail
a slab allocation even though free objects are available because they are
being preserved for callers that are freeing pages.
