If lockdep_register_key() and lockdep_unregister_key() are called with
debug_locks == false then the following warning is reported:
WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 15145 at kernel/locking/lockdep.c:4920 lockdep_unregister_key+0x1ad/0x240
That warning is reported because lockdep_unregister_key() ignores the
value of 'debug_locks' and because the behavior of lockdep_register_key()
depends on whether or not 'debug_locks' is set. Fix this inconsistency
by making lockdep_unregister_key() take 'debug_locks' again into
account.

The following commit:
a0b0fd53e1 ("locking/lockdep: Free lock classes that are no longer in use")
changed the behavior of lockdep_free_key_range() from
unconditionally zapping lock classes into only zapping lock classes if
debug_lock == true. Not zapping lock classes if debug_lock == false leaves
dangling pointers in several lockdep datastructures, e.g. lock_class::name
in the all_lock_classes list.
The shell command "cat /proc/lockdep" causes the kernel to iterate the
all_lock_classes list. Hence the "unable to handle kernel paging request" cash
that Shenghui encountered by running cat /proc/lockdep.
Since the new behavior can cause cat /proc/lockdep to crash, restore the
pre-v5.1 behavior.
This patch avoids that cat /proc/lockdep triggers the following crash
with debug_lock == false:

Add lock event counting calls so that we can track the number of lock
events happening in the rwsem code.
With CONFIG_LOCK_EVENT_COUNTS on and booting a 4-socket 112-thread x86-64
system, the rwsem counts after system bootup were as follows:
rwsem_opt_fail=261
rwsem_opt_wlock=50636
rwsem_rlock=445
rwsem_rlock_fail=0
rwsem_rlock_fast=22
rwsem_rtrylock=810144
rwsem_sleep_reader=441
rwsem_sleep_writer=310
rwsem_wake_reader=355
rwsem_wake_writer=2335
rwsem_wlock=261
rwsem_wlock_fail=0
rwsem_wtrylock=20583
It can be seen that most of the lock acquisitions in the slowpath were
write-locks in the optimistic spinning code path with no sleeping at
all. For this system, over 97% of the locks are acquired via optimistic
spinning. It illustrates the importance of optimistic spinning in
improving the performance of rwsem.

The QUEUED_LOCK_STAT option to report queued spinlocks event counts
was previously allowed only on x86 architecture. To make the locking
event counting code more useful, it is now renamed to a more generic
LOCK_EVENT_COUNTS config option. This new option will be available to
all the architectures that use qspinlock at the moment.
Other locking code can now start to use the generic locking event
counting code by including lock_events.h and put the new locking event
names into the lock_events_list.h header file.
My experience with lock event counting is that it gives valuable insight
on how the locking code works and what can be done to make it better. I
would like to extend this benefit to other locking code like mutex and
rwsem in the near future.
The PV qspinlock specific code will stay in qspinlock_stat.h. The
locking event counters will now reside in the <debugfs>/lock_event_counts
directory.

Removing explicit calls to mmiowb() from driver code means that we must
now call into the generic mmiowb_spin_{lock,unlock}() functions from the
core spinlock code. In order to elide barriers following critical
sections without any I/O writes, we also hook into the asm-generic I/O
routines.

In preparation for removing all explicit mmiowb() calls from driver
code, implement a tracking system in asm-generic based loosely on the
PowerPC implementation. This allows architectures with a non-empty
mmiowb() definition to have the barrier automatically inserted in
spin_unlock() following a critical section containing an I/O write.

As the generic rwsem-xadd code is using the appropriate acquire and
release versions of the atomic operations, the arch specific rwsem.h
files will not be that much faster than the generic code as long as the
atomic functions are properly implemented. So we can remove those arch
specific rwsem.h and stop building asm/rwsem.h to reduce maintenance
effort.
Currently, only x86, alpha and ia64 have implemented architecture
specific fast paths. I don't have access to alpha and ia64 systems for
testing, but they are legacy systems that are not likely to be updated
to the latest kernel anyway.
By using a rwsem microbenchmark, the total locking rates on a 4-socket
56-core 112-thread x86-64 system before and after the patch were as
follows (mixed means equal # of read and write locks):

There were some run-to-run variations for the multi-thread tests. For
x86-64, using the generic C code fast path seems to be a little bit
faster than the assembly version with low lock contention. Looking at
the assembly version of the fast paths, there are assembly to/from C
code wrappers that save and restore all the callee-clobbered registers
(7 registers on x86-64). The assembly generated from the generic C
code doesn't need to do that. That may explain the slight performance
gain here.
The generic asm rwsem.h can also be merged into kernel/locking/rwsem.h
with no code change as no other code other than those under
kernel/locking needs to access the internal rwsem macros and functions.

Currently, lock_torture_cleanup() uses the values of cxt.lwsa and cxt.lrsa
to detect bad parameters that prevented locktorture from initializing,
let alone running. In this case, lock_torture_cleanup() does no cleanup
aside from invoking torture_cleanup_begin() and torture_cleanup_end(),
as required to permit future torture tests to run. However, this
heuristic fails if the run with bad parameters was preceded by a previous
run that actually ran: In this case, both cxt.lwsa and cxt.lrsa will
remain non-zero, which means that the current lock_torture_cleanup()
invocation will be unable to detect the fact that it should skip cleanup,
which can result in charming outcomes such as double frees.
This commit therefore NULLs out both cxt.lwsa and cxt.lrsa at the end
of any run that actually ran.
