commit badc28d4924bfed73efc93f716a0c3aa3afbdf6f upstream.
The debugfs_remove_recursive() is invoked by unregister_shrinker(), which
is holding the write lock of shrinker_rwsem. It will waits for the
handler of debugfs file complete. The handler also needs to hold the read
lock of shrinker_rwsem to do something. So it may cause the following
deadlock:
CPU0 CPU1
debugfs_file_get()
shrinker_debugfs_count_show()/shrinker_debugfs_scan_write()
unregister_shrinker()
--> down_write(&shrinker_rwsem);
debugfs_remove_recursive()
// wait for (A)
--> wait_for_completion();
// wait for (B)
--> down_read_killable(&shrinker_rwsem)
debugfs_file_put() -- (A)
up_write() -- (B)
The down_read_killable() can be killed, so that the above deadlock can be
recovered. But it still requires an extra kill action, otherwise it will
block all subsequent shrinker-related operations, so it's better to fix
it.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
