Sebastian Andrzej Siewior 0790ed6238 mm/memcg: disable migration instead of preemption in drain_all_stock().
Before the for-each-CPU loop, preemption is disabled so that so that
drain_local_stock() can be invoked directly instead of scheduling a
worker.  Ensuring that drain_local_stock() completed on the local CPU is
not correctness problem.  It _could_ be that the charging path will be
forced to reclaim memory because cached charges are still waiting for
their draining.

Disabling preemption before invoking drain_local_stock() is problematic
on PREEMPT_RT due to the sleeping locks involved.  To ensure that no CPU
migrations happens across for_each_online_cpu() it is enouhg to use
migrate_disable() which disables migration and keeps context preemptible
to a sleeping lock can be acquired.  A race with CPU hotplug is not a
problem because pcp data is not going away.  In the worst case we just
schedule draining of an empty stock.

Use migrate_disable() instead of get_cpu() around the
for_each_online_cpu() loop.

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.
