Currently, kernfs nodes can be created hidden and activated later by calling
kernfs_activate() to allow creation of multiple nodes to succeed or fail as
a unit. This is an one-way one-time-only transition. This patch introduces
kernfs_show() which can toggle visibility dynamically.
As the currently proposed use - toggling the cgroup pressure files - only
requires operating on leaf nodes, for the sake of simplicity, restrict it as
such for now.
Hiding uses the same mechanism as deactivation and likewise guarantees that
there are no in-flight operations on completion. KERNFS_ACTIVATED and
KERNFS_HIDDEN are used to manage the interactions between activations and
show/hide operations. A node is visible iff both activated & !hidden.

KERNFS_ACTIVATED tracks whether a given node has ever been activated. As a
node was only deactivated on removal, this was used for
1. Drain optimization (removed by the previous patch).
2. To hide !activated nodes
3. To avoid double activations
4. Reject adding children to a node being removed
5. Skip activaing a node which is being removed.
We want to decouple deactivation from removal so that nodes can be
deactivated and hidden dynamically, which makes KERNFS_ACTIVATED useless for
all of the above purposes.
#1 is already gone. #2 and #3 can instead test whether the node is currently
active. A new flag KERNFS_REMOVING is added to explicitly mark nodes which
are being removed for #4 and #5.
While this leaves KERNFS_ACTIVATED with no users, leave it be as it will be
used in a following patch.

__kernfs_remove() was skipping draining based on KERNFS_ACTIVATED - whether
the node has ever been activated since creation. Instead, update it to
always call kernfs_drain() which now drains or skips based on the precise
drain conditions. This ensures that the nodes will be deactivated and
drained regardless of their states.
This doesn't make meaningful difference now but will enable deactivating and
draining nodes dynamically by making removals safe when racing those
operations.
While at it, drop / update comments.
v2: Fix the inverted test on kernfs_should_drain_open_files() noted by
Chengming. This was fixed by the next unrelated patch in the previous
posting.

Track the number of mmapped files and files that need to be released and
skip kernfs_drain_open_file() if both are zero, which are the precise
conditions which require draining open_files. The early exit test is
factored into kernfs_should_drain_open_files() which is now tested by
kernfs_drain_open_files()'s caller - kernfs_drain().
This isn't a meaningful optimization on its own but will enable future
stand-alone kernfs_deactivate() implementation.
v2: Chengming noticed that on->nr_to_release was leaking after ->open()
failure. Fix it by telling kernfs_unlink_open_file() that it's called
from the ->open() fail path and should dec the counter. Use kzalloc() to
allocate kernfs_open_node so that the tracking fields are correctly
initialized.

kernfs_node->attr.open is an RCU pointer to kernfs_open_node. However, RCU
dereference is currently only used in kernfs_notify(). Everywhere else,
either we're holding the lock which protects it or know that the
kernfs_open_node is pinned becaused we have a pointer to a kernfs_open_file
which is hanging off of it.
kernfs_deref_open_node() is used for the latter case - accessing
kernfs_open_node from kernfs_open_file. The lifetime and visibility rules
are simple and clear here. To someone who can access a kernfs_open_file, its
kernfs_open_node is pinned and visible through of->kn->attr.open.
Replace kernfs_deref_open_node() which simpler of_on(). The former takes
both @kn and @of and RCU deref @kn->attr.open while sanity checking with
@of. The latter takes @of and uses protected deref on of->kn->attr.open.
As the return value can't be NULL, remove the error handling in the callers
too.
This shouldn't cause any functional changes.

tracing/eprobes: Do not hardcode $comm as a string
tracing/eprobes: Do not allow eprobes to use $stack, or % for regs
ftrace: Fix NULL pointer dereference in is_ftrace_trampoline when ftrace is dead
tracing/perf: Fix double put of trace event when init fails
tracing: React to error return from traceprobe_parse_event_name()
Currently, if a symbol "@" is attempted to be used with an event probe
(eprobes), it will cause a NULL pointer dereference crash.
Both kprobes and uprobes can reference data other than the main registers.
Such as immediate address, symbols and the current task name. Have eprobes
do the same thing.
For "comm", if "comm" is used and the event being attached to does not
have the "comm" field, then make it the "$comm" that kprobes has. This is
consistent to the way histograms and filters work.

If in perf_trace_event_init(), the perf_trace_event_open() fails, then it
will call perf_trace_event_unreg() which will not only unregister the perf
trace event, but will also call the put() function of the tp_event.
The problem here is that the trace_event_try_get_ref() is called by the
caller of perf_trace_event_init() and if perf_trace_event_init() returns a
failure, it will then call trace_event_put(). But since the
perf_trace_event_unreg() already called the trace_event_put() function, it
triggers a WARN_ON().
WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 30309 at kernel/trace/trace_dynevent.c:46 trace_event_dyn_put_ref+0x15/0x20
If perf_trace_event_reg() does not call the trace_event_try_get_ref() then
the perf_trace_event_unreg() should not be calling trace_event_put(). This
breaks symmetry and causes bugs like these.
Pull out the trace_event_put() from perf_trace_event_unreg() and call it
in the locations that perf_trace_event_unreg() is called. This not only
fixes this bug, but also brings back the proper symmetry of the reg/unreg
vs get/put logic.
