mm/migrate: fix deadlock in migrate_pages_batch() on large folios
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history 
Currently, migrate_pages_batch() can lock multiple locked folios with an
arbitrary order.  Although folio_trylock() is used to avoid deadlock as
commit 2ef7dbb ("migrate_pages: try migrate in batch asynchronously
firstly") mentioned, it seems try_split_folio() is still missing.

It was found by compaction stress test when I explicitly enable EROFS
compressed files to use large folios, which case I cannot reproduce with
the same workload if large folio support is off (current mainline). 
Typically, filesystem reads (with locked file-backed folios) could use
another bdev/meta inode to load some other I/Os (e.g.  inode extent
metadata or caching compressed data), so the locking order will be:

  file-backed folios  (A)
     bdev/meta folios (B)

The following calltrace shows the deadlock:
   Thread 1 takes (B) lock and tries to take folio (A) lock
   Thread 2 takes (A) lock and tries to take folio (B) lock
