When we to enable the SMB by perf, the perf sched will call perf_ctx_lock()
to close system preempt in event_function_call(). But SMB::enable_smb() use
mutex to lock the critical section, which may sleep.
BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/locking/mutex.c:580

Use spinlock to replace mutex to control driver data access to one at a
time. The function copy_to_user() may sleep, it cannot be in a spinlock
context, so we can't simply replace it in smb_read(). But we can ensure
that only one user gets the SMB device fd by smb_open(), so remove the
locks from smb_read() and buffer synchronization is guaranteed by the user.

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.
