mm/filemap.c: fix a data race in filemap_fault()
struct file_ra_state ra.mmap_miss could be accessed concurrently during page faults as noticed by KCSAN, BUG: KCSAN: data-race in filemap_fault / filemap_map_pages write to 0xffff9b1700a2c1b4 of 4 bytes by task 3292 on cpu 30: filemap_fault+0x920/0xfc0 do_sync_mmap_readahead at mm/filemap.c:2384 (inlined by) filemap_fault at mm/filemap.c:2486 __xfs_filemap_fault+0x112/0x3e0 [xfs] xfs_filemap_fault+0x74/0x90 [xfs] __do_fault+0x9e/0x220 do_fault+0x4a0/0x920 __handle_mm_fault+0xc69/0xd00 handle_mm_fault+0xfc/0x2f0 do_page_fault+0x263/0x6f9 page_fault+0x34/0x40 read to 0xffff9b1700a2c1b4 of 4 bytes by task 3313 on cpu 32: filemap_map_pages+0xc2e/0xd80 filemap_map_pages at mm/filemap.c:2625 do_fault+0x3da/0x920 __handle_mm_fault+0xc69/0xd00 handle_mm_fault+0xfc/0x2f0 do_page_fault+0x263/0x6f9 page_fault+0x34/0x40 Reported by Kernel Concurrency Sanitizer on: CPU: 32 PID: 3313 Comm: systemd-udevd Tainted: G W L 5.5.0-next-20200210+ #1 Hardware name: HPE ProLiant DL385 Gen10/ProLiant DL385 Gen10, BIOS A40 07/10/2019 ra.mmap_miss is used to contribute the readahead decisions, a data race could be undesirable. Both the read and write is only under non-exclusive mmap_sem, two concurrent writers could even underflow the counter. Fix the underflow by writing to a local variable before committing a final store to ra.mmap_miss given a small inaccuracy of the counter should be acceptable. Signed-off-by: Kirill A.
