Fix this issue by using raw_spin_trylock() in NMI. Since NMI interrupts non-NMI context, when NMI context tries to lock the raw_spinlock, non-NMI context of the same CPU may already have locked a lock and is blocked from unlocking the lock. For a system with N CPUs, there could be N NMIs at the same time, and they may block N non-NMI raw_spinlocks. This is tricky for pcpu_freelist_push(), where unlike _pop(), failing _push() means leaking memory. This issue is more likely to trigger in non-SMP system. Fix this issue with an extra list, pcpu_freelist.extralist. The extralist is primarily used to take _push() when raw_spin_trylock() failed on all the per CPU lists. It should be empty most of the time. The following table summarizes the behavior of pcpu_freelist in NMI and non-NMI: non-NMI pop(): use _lock(); check per CPU lists first; if all per CPU lists are empty, check extralist; if extralist is empty, return NULL. non-NMI push(): use _lock(); only push to per CPU lists. NMI pop(): use _trylock(); check per CPU lists first; if all per CPU lists are locked or empty, check extralist; if extralist is locked or empty, return NULL. NMI push(): use _trylock(); check per CPU lists first; if all per CPU lists are locked; try push to extralist; if extralist is also locked, keep trying on per CPU lists.

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.
