In freeze_process/thaw_processes it can take about 200+ms for holding read lock of tasklist_lock by walking and freezing/thawing tasks in commercial devices. And write_lock_irq will have preempt disabled and local irq disabled to spin until the tasklist_lock can be acquired. This leading to a bad responsive performance of current system. Take an example: 1. cpu0 is holding read lock of tasklist_lock to thaw_processes. 2. cpu1 is waiting write lock of tasklist_lock to exec a new thread with preempt_disabled and local irq disabled. 3. cpu2 is waiting write lock of tasklist_lock to do_exit with preempt_disabled and local irq disabled. 4. cpu3 is waiting write lock of tasklist_lock to do_exit with preempt_disabled and local irq disabled. So introduce a write lock/unlock wrapper for tasklist_lock specificly. The current taskslist_lock writers all have write_lock_irq to hold tasklist_lock, and write_unlock_irq to release tasklist_lock, that means the writers are not suitable or workable to wait on tasklist_lock in irq disabled scenarios. So the write lock/unlock wrapper here only follow the current design of directly use local_irq_disable and local_irq_enable, and not take already irq disabled writer callers into account. Use write_trylock in the loop and enabled irq for cpu to repsond if lock cannot be taken.
