[ Upstream commit 0a7dd4e901b8a4ee040ba953900d1d7120b34ee5 ]
When multiple locks are acquired, they should be released in reverse order. For s_start() and s_stop() in mm/vmalloc.c, that is not the case.
s_start: mutex_lock(&vmap_purge_lock); spin_lock(&vmap_area_lock); s_stop : mutex_unlock(&vmap_purge_lock); spin_unlock(&vmap_area_lock);
This unlock sequence, though allowed, is not optimal. If a waiter is present, mutex_unlock() will need to go through the slowpath of waking up the waiter with preemption disabled. Fix that by releasing the spinlock first before the mutex.
