[PATCH v3 2/2] mm: avoid slub allocation while holding list_lock

[Yu Zhao <yuzhao@google.com>]

If we are already under list_lock, don't call kmalloc(). Otherwise we
will run into deadlock because kmalloc() also tries to grab the same
lock.

Fixing the problem by using a static bitmap instead.

  WARNING: possible recursive locking detected
  --------------------------------------------
  mount-encrypted/4921 is trying to acquire lock:
  (&(&n->list_lock)->rlock){-.-.}, at: ___slab_alloc+0x104/0x437

  but task is already holding lock:
  (&(&n->list_lock)->rlock){-.-.}, at: __kmem_cache_shutdown+0x81/0x3cb

  other info that might help us debug this:
   Possible unsafe locking scenario:

         CPU0
         ----
    lock(&(&n->list_lock)->rlock);
    lock(&(&n->list_lock)->rlock);

   *** DEADLOCK ***
