ubi: Fix deadlock caused by recursively holding work_sem
[ Upstream commit f773f0a331d6c41733b17bebbc1b6cae12e016f5 ]
During the processing of the bgt, if the sync_erase() return -EBUSY
or some other error code in __erase_worker(),schedule_erase() called
again lead to the down_read(ubi->work_sem) hold twice and may get
block by down_write(ubi->work_sem) in ubi_update_fastmap(),
which cause deadlock.
ubi bgt other task
do_work
down_read(&ubi->work_sem) ubi_update_fastmap
erase_worker # Blocked by down_read
__erase_worker down_write(&ubi->work_sem)
schedule_erase
schedule_ubi_work
down_read(&ubi->work_sem)
Fix this by changing input parameter @nested of the schedule_erase() to
'true' to avoid recursively acquiring the down_read(&ubi->work_sem).
Also, fix the incorrect comment about @nested parameter of the
schedule_erase() because when down_write(ubi->work_sem) is held, the
@nested is also need be true.
