locking/local_lock, mm: replace localtry_ helpers with local_trylock_t type
Partially revert commit
0aaddfb06882 ("locking/local_lock: Introduce
localtry_lock_t"). Remove localtry_*() helpers, since localtry_lock()
name might be misinterpreted as "try lock".
Introduce local_trylock[_irqsave]() helpers that only work with newly
introduced local_trylock_t type. Note that attempt to use
local_trylock[_irqsave]() with local_lock_t will cause compilation
failure.
Usage and behavior in !PREEMPT_RT:
local_lock_t lock; // sizeof(lock) == 0
local_lock(&lock); // preempt disable
local_lock_irqsave(&lock, ...); // irq save
if (local_trylock_irqsave(&lock, ...)) // compilation error
local_trylock_t lock; // sizeof(lock) == 4
local_lock(&lock); // preempt disable, acquired = 1
local_lock_irqsave(&lock, ...); // irq save, acquired = 1
if (local_trylock(&lock)) // if (!acquired) preempt disable, acquired = 1
if (local_trylock_irqsave(&lock, ...)) // if (!acquired) irq save, acquired = 1
The existing local_lock_*() macros can be used either with local_lock_t or
local_trylock_t. With local_trylock_t they set acquired = 1 while
local_unlock_*() clears it.
In !PREEMPT_RT local_lock_irqsave(local_lock_t *) disables interrupts to
protect critical section, but it doesn't prevent NMI, so the fully
reentrant code cannot use local_lock_irqsave(local_lock_t *) for exclusive
access.
The local_lock_irqsave(local_trylock_t *) helper disables interrupts and
sets acquired=1, so local_trylock_irqsave(local_trylock_t *) from NMI
attempting to acquire the same lock will return false.
In PREEMPT_RT local_lock_irqsave() maps to preemptible spin_lock(). Map
local_trylock_irqsave() to preemptible spin_trylock(). When in hard IRQ
or NMI return false right away, since spin_trylock() is not safe due to
explicit locking in the underneath rt_spin_trylock() implementation.
Removing this explicit locking and attempting only "trylock" is undesired
due to PI implications.
The local_trylock() without _irqsave can be used to avoid the cost of
disabling/enabling interrupts by only disabling preemption, so
local_trylock() in an interrupt attempting to acquire the same lock will
return false.
Note there is no need to use local_inc for acquired variable, since it's a
percpu variable with strict nesting scopes.
Note that guard(local_lock)(&lock) works only for "local_lock_t lock".
The patch also makes sure that local_lock_release(l) is called before
WRITE_ONCE(l->acquired, 0). Though IRQs are disabled at this point the
local_trylock() from NMI will succeed and local_lock_acquire(l) will warn.
