mm/page_alloc: fix race condition between build_all_zonelists and page allocation

Browse Source 
Patrick Daly reported the following problem;

	NODE_DATA(nid)->node_zonelists[ZONELIST_FALLBACK] - before offline operation
	[0] - ZONE_MOVABLE
	[1] - ZONE_NORMAL
	[2] - NULL

	For a GFP_KERNEL allocation, alloc_pages_slowpath() will save the
	offset of ZONE_NORMAL in ac->preferred_zoneref. If a concurrent
	memory_offline operation removes the last page from ZONE_MOVABLE,
	build_all_zonelists() & build_zonerefs_node() will update
	node_zonelists as shown below. Only populated zones are added.

	NODE_DATA(nid)->node_zonelists[ZONELIST_FALLBACK] - after offline operation
	[0] - ZONE_NORMAL
	[1] - NULL
	[2] - NULL

The race is simple -- page allocation could be in progress when a memory
hot-remove operation triggers a zonelist rebuild that removes zones.  The
allocation request will still have a valid ac->preferred_zoneref that is
now pointing to NULL and triggers an OOM kill.

This problem probably always existed but may be slightly easier to trigger
due to 6aa303defb ("mm, vmscan: only allocate and reclaim from zones
with pages managed by the buddy allocator") which distinguishes between
zones that are completely unpopulated versus zones that have valid pages
not managed by the buddy allocator (e.g.  reserved, memblock, ballooning
etc).  Memory hotplug had multiple stages with timing considerations
around managed/present page updates, the zonelist rebuild and the zone
span updates.  As David Hildenbrand puts it

	memory offlining adjusts managed+present pages of the zone
	essentially in one go. If after the adjustments, the zone is no
	longer populated (present==0), we rebuild the zone lists.

	Once that's done, we try shrinking the zone (start+spanned
	pages) -- which results in zone_start_pfn == 0 if there are no
	more pages. That happens *after* rebuilding the zonelists via
	remove_pfn_range_from_zone().

The only requirement to fix the race is that a page allocation request
identifies when a zonelist rebuild has happened since the allocation
request started and no page has yet been allocated.  Use a seqlock_t to
track zonelist updates with a lockless read-side of the zonelist and
protecting the rebuild and update of the counter with a spinlock.
