Fork of alistair23 Linux kernel for reMarkable from https://github.com/alistair23/linux
3c2214b602
Removing the pcrypt module triggers this:
general protection fault, probably for non-canonical
address 0xdead000000000122
CPU: 5 PID: 264 Comm: modprobe Not tainted 5.6.0+ #2
Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC
RIP: 0010:__cpuhp_state_remove_instance+0xcc/0x120
Call Trace:
padata_sysfs_release+0x74/0xce
kobject_put+0x81/0xd0
padata_free+0x12/0x20
pcrypt_exit+0x43/0x8ee [pcrypt]
padata instances wrongly use the same hlist node for the online and dead
states, so __padata_free()'s second cpuhp remove call chokes on the node
that the first poisoned.
cpuhp multi-instance callbacks only walk forward in cpuhp_step->list and
the same node is linked in both the online and dead lists, so the list
corruption that results from padata_alloc() adding the node to a second
list without removing it from the first doesn't cause problems as long
as no instances are freed.
Avoid the issue by giving each state its own node.

README
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.
