Koichiro Den adcfb264c3 vmstat: disable vmstat_work on vmstat_cpu_down_prep()
Even after mm/vmstat:online teardown, shepherd may still queue work for
the dying cpu until the cpu is removed from online mask.  While it's quite
rare, this means that after unbind_workers() unbinds a per-cpu kworker, it
potentially runs vmstat_update for the dying CPU on an irrelevant cpu
before entering atomic AP states.  When CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT=y, it results
in the following error with the backtrace.

  BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000000] code: \
                                               kworker/7:3/1702
  caller is refresh_cpu_vm_stats+0x235/0x5f0
  CPU: 0 UID: 0 PID: 1702 Comm: kworker/7:3 Tainted: G
  Tainted: [N]=TEST
  Workqueue: mm_percpu_wq vmstat_update
  Call Trace:

   </TASK>

So, for mm/vmstat:online, disable vmstat_work reliably on teardown and
symmetrically enable it on startup.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
