We trigger a soft lockup as we grab nametbl_lock twice if the node
has a pending node up/down or link up/down event while:
- we process an incoming named message in tipc_named_rcv() and
perform an tipc_update_nametbl().
- we have pending backlog items in the name distributor queue
during a nametable update using tipc_nametbl_publish() or
tipc_nametbl_withdraw().
The following are the call chain associated:
tipc_named_rcv() Grabs nametbl_lock
tipc_update_nametbl() (publish/withdraw)
tipc_node_subscribe()/unsubscribe()
tipc_node_write_unlock()
<< lockup occurs if an outstanding node/link event
exits, as we grabs nametbl_lock again >>
tipc_nametbl_withdraw() Grab nametbl_lock
tipc_named_process_backlog()
tipc_update_nametbl()
<< rest as above >>
The function tipc_node_write_unlock(), in addition to releasing the
lock processes the outstanding node/link up/down events. To do this,
we need to grab the nametbl_lock again leading to the lockup.
In this commit we fix the soft lockup by introducing a fast variant of
node_unlock(), where we just release the lock. We adapt the
node_subscribe()/node_unsubscribe() to use the fast variants.
