Kirill A. Shutemov 4067196a52 mm/page_alloc: fix deadlock on cpu_hotplug_lock in __accept_page()
When the last page in the zone is accepted, __accept_page() calls
static_branch_dec().  This function takes cpu_hotplug_lock, which can lead
to a deadlock if the allocation occurs during CPU bringup path as
_cpu_up() also takes the lock.

To prevent this deadlock, defer static_branch_dec() to a workqueue.

Call static_branch_dec() only when the workqueue is not yet initialized. 
Workqueues are initialized before CPU bring up, so this will not conflict
with the first scenario.

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 reStructuredText 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.
