      smp/hotplug: Move unparking of percpu threads to the control CPU · 9cd4f1a4

      Vikram reported the following backtrace:
      
         BUG: scheduling while atomic: swapper/7/0/0x00000002
         CPU: 7 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/7 Not tainted 4.9.32-perf+ #680

      He analyzed correctly that a parked cpu hotplug thread of an offlined CPU
      was still on the runqueue when the CPU came back online and tried to unpark
      it. This causes the thread which invoked kthread_unpark() to call
      wait_task_inactive() and subsequently schedule() with preemption disabled.
      His proposed workaround was to "make sure" that a parked thread has
      scheduled out when the CPU goes offline, so the situation cannot happen.
      
      But that's still wrong because the root cause is not the fact that the
      percpu thread is still on the runqueue and neither that preemption is
      disabled, which could be simply solved by enabling preemption before
      calling kthread_unpark().
      
      The real issue is that the calling thread is the idle task of the upcoming
      CPU, which is not supposed to call anything which might sleep.  The moron,
      who wrote that code, missed completely that kthread_unpark() might end up
      in schedule().
      
      The solution is simpler than expected. The thread which controls the
      hotplug operation is waiting for the CPU to call complete() on the hotplug
      state completion. So the idle task of the upcoming CPU can set its state to
      CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_IDLE and invoke complete(). This in turn wakes the control
      task on a different CPU, which then can safely do the unpark and kick the
      now unparked hotplug thread of the upcoming CPU to complete the bringup to
      the final target state.
