Zqiang 1dd1eff161 softirq: Fix suspicious RCU usage in __do_softirq()
Currently, the condition "__this_cpu_read(ksoftirqd) == current" is used to
invoke rcu_softirq_qs() in ksoftirqd tasks context for non-RT kernels.

This works correctly as long as the context is actually task context but
this condition is wrong when:

     - the current task is ksoftirqd
     - the task is interrupted in a RCU read side critical section
     - __do_softirq() is invoked on return from interrupt

Syzkaller triggered the following scenario:

  -> finish_task_switch()
    -> put_task_struct_rcu_user()
      -> call_rcu(&task->rcu, delayed_put_task_struct)
        -> __kasan_record_aux_stack()
          -> pfn_valid()
            -> rcu_read_lock_sched()
              <interrupt>
                __irq_exit_rcu()
                -> __do_softirq)()
                   -> if (!IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT) &&
                     __this_cpu_read(ksoftirqd) == current)
                     -> rcu_softirq_qs()
                       -> RCU_LOCKDEP_WARN(lock_is_held(&rcu_sched_lock_map))

The rcu quiescent state is reported in the rcu-read critical section, so
the lockdep warning is triggered.

Fix this by splitting out the inner working of __do_softirq() into a helper
function which takes an argument to distinguish between ksoftirqd task
context and interrupted context and invoke it from the relevant call sites
with the proper context information and use that for the conditional
invocation of rcu_softirq_qs().

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.
