Subject[PATCH v4] locking/csd_lock: change csdlock_debug from early_param to __setup
Date
csdlock_debug uses early_param and static_branch_enable() to enable
csd_lock_wait feature, which triggers a panic on arm64 with config:
CONFIG_SPARSEMEM=y
CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP=n

With CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP=n, __nr_to_section is called in
static_key_enable() and returns NULL which makes NULL dereference
because mem_section is initialized in sparse_init() which is later
than parse_early_param() stage.

For powerpc this is also broken, because early_param stage is
earlier than jump_label_init() so static_key_enable won't work.
powerpc throws an warning: "static key 'xxx' used before call
to jump_label_init()".

Thus, early_param is too early for csd_lock_wait to run
static_branch_enable(), so changes it to __setup to fix these.

Change v3 -> v4:
Fix title and description because this fix is also applied
to powerpc.
For more detailed arm64 bug report see:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-kernel/e8715911-f835-059d-27f8-cc5f5ad30a07@huawei.com/t/

Change v2 -> v3:
Add module name in title

Change v1 -> v2:
Fix return 1 for __setup
