[PATCH v3] mm/page_alloc: Fix pcp->count race between drain_pages_zone() vs __rmqueue_pcplist()

[Li Zhijian <lizhijian@fujitsu.com>]

It's expected that no page should be left in pcp_list after calling
zone_pcp_disable() in offline_pages(). Previously, it's observed that
offline_pages() gets stuck [1] due to some pages remaining in pcp_list.

Cause:
There is a race condition between drain_pages_zone() and __rmqueue_pcplist()
involving the pcp->count variable. See below scenario:

         CPU0                              CPU1
    ----------------                    ---------------
                                      spin_lock(&pcp->lock);
                                      __rmqueue_pcplist() {
zone_pcp_disable() {
                                        /* list is empty */
                                        if (list_empty(list)) {
                                          /* add pages to pcp_list */
                                          alloced = rmqueue_bulk()
  mutex_lock(&pcp_batch_high_lock)
  ...
  __drain_all_pages() {
    drain_pages_zone() {
      /* read pcp->count, it's 0 here */
      count = READ_ONCE(pcp->count)
      /* 0 means nothing to drain */
                                          /* update pcp->count */
                                          pcp->count += alloced << order;
      ...
                                      ...
                                      spin_unlock(&pcp->lock);

In this case, after calling zone_pcp_disable() though, there are still some
pages in pcp_list. And these pages in pcp_list are neither movable nor
isolated, offline_pages() gets stuck as a result.

Solution:
Expand the scope of the pcp->lock to also protect pcp->count in
drain_pages_zone(), to ensure no pages are left in the pcp list after
zone_pcp_disable()

V3:
    Read pcp->count in the loop with lock held to prevent unnecessary spin_lock() wasteful
V2:
    - Narrow down the scope of the spin_lock() to limit the draining latency. # Vlastimil and David
    - In above scenario, it's sufficient to read pcp->count once with lock held, and it fully fixed
      my issue[1] in thounds runs(It happened in more than 5% before).
