Peter Zijlstra 91dabf33ae sched: Fix race in task_call_func()
There is a very narrow race between schedule() and task_call_func().

  CPU0						CPU1

  __schedule()
    rq_lock();
    prev_state = READ_ONCE(prev->__state);
    if (... && prev_state) {
      deactivate_tasl(rq, prev, ...)
        prev->on_rq = 0;

						task_call_func()
						  raw_spin_lock_irqsave(p->pi_lock);
						  state = READ_ONCE(p->__state);
						  smp_rmb();
						  if (... || p->on_rq) // false!!!
						    rq = __task_rq_lock()

						  ret = func();

    next = pick_next_task();
    rq = context_switch(prev, next)
      prepare_lock_switch()
        spin_release(&__rq_lockp(rq)->dep_map...)

So while the task is on it's way out, it still holds rq->lock for a
little while, and right then task_call_func() comes in and figures it
doesn't need rq->lock anymore (because the task is already dequeued --
but still running there) and then the __set_task_frozen() thing observes
it's holding rq->lock and yells murder.

Avoid this by waiting for p->on_cpu to get cleared, which guarantees
the task is fully finished on the old CPU.

( While arguably the fixes tag is 'wrong' -- none of the previous
  task_call_func() users appears to care for this case. )

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.
