vma_prepare() is currently the central place where vmas are being locked
before vma_complete() applies changes to them. While this is convenient,
it also obscures vma locking and makes it harder to follow the locking
rules. Move vma locking out of vma_prepare() and take vma locks
explicitly at the locations where vmas are being modified. Move vma
locking and replace it with an assertion inside dup_anon_vma() to further
clarify the locking pattern inside vma_merge().

Implicit vma locking inside vm_flags_reset() and vm_flags_reset_once() is
not obvious and makes it hard to understand where vma locking is happening.
Also in some cases (like in dup_userfaultfd()) vma should be locked earlier
than vma_flags modification. To make locking more visible, change these
functions to assert that the vma write lock is taken and explicitly lock
the vma beforehand. Fix userfaultfd functions which should lock the vma
earlier.

For system with kernelcore=mirror enabled while no mirrored memory is
reported by efi. This could lead to kernel OOM during startup since all
memory beside zone DMA are in the movable zone and this prevents the
kernel to use it.
Zone DMA/DMA32 initialization is independent of mirrored memory and their
max pfn is set in zone_sizes_init(). Since kernel can fallback to zone
DMA/DMA32 if there is no memory in zone Normal, these zones are seen as
mirrored memory no mather their memory attributes are.
To solve this problem, disable kernelcore=mirror when there is no real
mirrored memory exists.

After 90ed667c03 ("Revert "Revert "mm/compaction: fix set skip in
fast_find_migrateblock"""), we remove skip set in fast_find_migrateblock.
Correct comment that fast_find_block is used to avoid isolation_suitable
check for pageblock returned from fast_find_migrateblock because
fast_find_migrateblock will mark found pageblock skipped.
Instead, comment that fast_find_block is used to avoid a redundant check
of fast found pageblock which is already checked skip flag inside
fast_find_migrateblock.

Move migrate_pfn to page block end when block is marked skip to avoid
unnecessary scan retry of that block from upper caller. For example,
compact_zone may wrongly rescan skip page block with finish_pageblock
set as following:
1. cc->migrate point to the start of page block
2. compact_zone record last_migrated_pfn to cc->migrate
3. compact_zone->isolate_migratepages->isolate_migratepages_block
tries to scan the block. The low_pfn maybe moved forward to middle of
block because of free pages at beginning of block.
4. we find first lru page could be isolated but block was exclusive
marked skip.
5. abort isolate_migratepages_block and make cc->migrate_pfn point to
found lru page at middle of block.
6. compact_zone find cc->migrate_pfn and last_migrated_pfn are in the
same block and wrongly rescan the block with finish_pageblock set.

We record start pfn of last isolated page block with last_migrated_pfn. And
then:
1. We check if we mark the page block skip for exclusive access in
isolate_migratepages_block by test if next migrate pfn is still in last
isolated page block. If so, we will set finish_pageblock to do the
rescan.
2. We check if a full cc->order block is scanned by test if last scan
range passes the cc->order block boundary. If so, we flush the pages
were freed.
We treat cc->migrate_pfn before isolate_migratepages as the start pfn of
last isolated page range. However, we always align migrate_pfn to page
block or move to another page block in fast_find_migrateblock or in
linearly scan forward in isolate_migratepages before do page isolation in
isolate_migratepages_block.
Update last_migrated_pfn with pageblock_start_pfn(cc->migrate_pfn - 1)
after scan to correctly set start pfn of last isolated page range. To
avoid that:
1. Miss a rescan with finish_pageblock set as last_migrate_pfn does
not point to right pageblock and the migrate will not be in pageblock
of last_migrate_pfn as it should be.
2. Wrongly issue flush by test cc->order block boundary with wrong
last_migrate_pfn.

Reorder the operations for split and spanning stores so that new data is
placed in the tree prior to marking the old data as dead. This will limit
re-walks on dead data to just once instead of a retry loop.
The order of operations is as follows: Create the new data, put the new
data in place, mark the top node of the old data as dead.
Then repair parent links in the reused nodes through all levels of the
tree, following the new nodes downwards. Finally walk the top dead node
looking for nodes that are no longer used, or subtrees that should be
destroyed (marked dead throughout then freed), follow the partially used
nodes downwards to discover other dead nodes and subtrees.

Replacing nodes may cause a live lock-up if CPU resources are saturated by
write operations on the tree by continuously retrying on dead nodes. To
avoid the continuous retry scenario, ensure the new node is inserted into
the tree prior to marking the old data as dead. This will define a window
where old and new data is swapped.
When reusing lower level nodes, ensure the parent pointer is updated after
the parent is marked dead. This ensures that the child is still reachable
from the top of the tree, but walking up to a dead node will result in a
single retry that will start a fresh walk from the top down through the
new node.

Patch series "maple_tree: Change replacement strategy".
The maple tree marks nodes dead as soon as they are going to be replaced.
This could be problematic when used in the RCU context since the writer
may be starved of CPU time by the readers. This patch set addresses the
issue by switching the data replacement strategy to one that will only
mark data as dead once the new data is available.
This series changes the ordering of the node replacement so that the new
data is live before the old data is marked 'dead'. When readers hit
'dead' nodes, they will restart from the top of the tree and end up in the
new data.
In more complex scenarios, the replacement strategy means a subtree is
built and graphed into the tree leaving some nodes to point to the old
parent. The view of tasks into the old data will either remain with the
old data, or see the new data once the old data is marked 'dead'.
Iterators will see the 'dead' node and restart on their own and switch to
the new data. There is no risk of the reader seeing old data in these
cases.
The 'dead' subtree of data is then fully marked dead, but reused nodes
will still point to the dead nodes until the parent pointer is updated.
Walking up to a 'dead' node will cause a re-walk from the top of the tree
and enter the new data area where old data is not reachable.
Once the parent pointers are fully up to date in the active data, the
'dead' subtree is iterated to collect entirely 'dead' subtrees, and dead
nodes (nodes that partially contained reused data).
This patch (of 6):
When dumping the tree, honour formatting request to output hex for the
maple node type arange64.

One DAMON context can have multiple monitoring targets, and DAMOS schemes
are applied to all targets. In some cases, users need to apply different
scheme to different targets. Retrieving monitoring results via DAMON
sysfs interface' 'tried_regions' directory could be one good example.
Also, there could be cases that cgroup DAMOS filter is not enough. All
such use cases can be worked around by having multiple DAMON contexts
having only single target, but it is inefficient in terms of resource
usage, thogh the overhead is not estimated to be huge.
Implement DAMON monitoring target based DAMOS filter for the case. Like
address range target DAMOS filter, handle these filters in the DAMON core
layer, since it is more efficient than doing in operations set layer.
This also means that regions that filtered out by monitoring target type
DAMOS filters are counted as not tried by the scheme. Hence, target
granularity monitoring results retrieval via DAMON sysfs interface becomes
available.
