Eric Dumazet f341861fb0 task_work: add a scheduling point in task_work_run()
It seems commit 4a9d4b024a ("switch fput to task_work_add") re-
introduced the problem addressed in 944be0b224 ("close_files(): add
scheduling point")

If a server process with a lot of files (say 2 million tcp sockets) is
killed, we can spend a lot of time in task_work_run() and trigger a soft
lockup.

Al Viro a2d4c71d15 deal with task_work callbacks adding more work
It doesn't matter on normal return to userland path (we'll recheck the
NOTIFY_RESUME flag anyway), but in case of exit_task_work() we'll
need that as soon as we get callbacks capable of triggering more
task_work_add().

Al Viro ed3e694d78 move exit_task_work() past exit_files() et.al.
... and get rid of PF_EXITING check in task_work_add().

Al Viro 67d1214551 merge task_work and rcu_head, get rid of separate allocation for keyring case
task_work and rcu_head are identical now; merge them (calling the result
struct callback_head, rcu_head #define'd to it), kill separate allocation
in security/keys since we can just use cred->rcu now.

Al Viro 158e1645e0 trim task_work: get rid of hlist
layout based on Oleg's suggestion; single-linked list,
task->task_works points to the last element, forward pointer
from said last element points to head.  I'd still prefer
much more regular scheme with two pointers in task_work,
but...

Oleg Nesterov e73f8959af task_work_add: generic process-context callbacks
Provide a simple mechanism that allows running code in the (nonatomic)
context of the arbitrary task.

The caller does task_work_add(task, task_work) and this task executes
task_work->func() either from do_notify_resume() or from do_exit().  The
callback can rely on PF_EXITING to detect the latter case.

"struct task_work" can be embedded in another struct, still it has "void
*data" to handle the most common/simple case.

This allows us to kill the ->replacement_session_keyring hack, and
potentially this can have more users.

Performance-wise, this adds 2 "unlikely(!hlist_empty())" checks into
tracehook_notify_resume() and do_exit().  But at the same time we can
remove the "replacement_session_keyring != NULL" checks from
arch/*/signal.c and exit_creds().

Note: task_work_add/task_work_run abuses ->pi_lock.  This is only because
this lock is already used by lookup_pi_state() to synchronize with
do_exit() setting PF_EXITING.  Fortunately the scope of this lock in
task_work.c is really tiny, and the code is unlikely anyway.
