[bpf-next,v3,20/25] bpf: Convert percpu_freelist.c to rqspinlock

Commit Message

Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi March 3, 2025, 3:23 p.m. UTC

Convert the percpu_freelist.c code to use rqspinlock, and remove the
extralist fallback and trylock-based acquisitions to avoid deadlocks.

Key thing to note is the retained while (true) loop to search through
other CPUs when failing to push a node due to locking errors. This
retains the behavior of the old code, where it would keep trying until
it would be able to successfully push the node back into the freelist of
a CPU.

Technically, we should start iteration for this loop from
raw_smp_processor_id() + 1, but to avoid hitting the edge of nr_cpus,
we skip execution in the loop body instead.
