commit80b71c340fupstream. The user triggers the creation of a pseudo-locked region when writing the requested schemata to the schemata resctrl file. The pseudo-locking of a region is required to be done on a CPU that is associated with the cache on which the pseudo-locked region will reside. In order to run the locking code on a specific CPU, the needed CPU has to be selected and ensured to remain online during the entire locking sequence. At this time, the cpu_hotplug_lock is not taken during the pseudo-lock region creation and it is thus possible for a CPU to be selected to run the pseudo-locking code and then that CPU to go offline before the thread is able to run on it. Fix this by ensuring that the cpu_hotplug_lock is taken while the CPU on which code has to run needs to be controlled. Since the cpu_hotplug_lock is always taken before rdtgroup_mutex the lock order is maintained.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
