Commit Fixes: c05ae9d85b47 ("dax/bus.c: replace driver-core lock usage by a local rwsem")
introduced a few problems that this series aims to fix. Add back
device_lock() where it was correctly used (during device manipulation
operations), remove conditional locking in unregister_dax_dev() and
unregister_dax_mapping(), use non-interruptible versions of rwsem
locks when not called from a user process, and fix up a write vs.
read usage of an rwsem.

In [1], Dan points out that all of the WARN_ON_ONCE() usage in the
referenced patch should be replaced with lockdep_assert_held, or
lockdep_held_assert_write(). Replace these as appropriate.

Commit c05ae9d85b47 ("dax/bus.c: replace driver-core lock usage by a local rwsem")
was a bit overzealous in eliminating device_lock() usage, and ended up
removing a couple of lock acquisitions which were needed, and as a
result, fix some of the conditional locking missteps that the above
commit introduced in unregister_dax_dev() and unregister_dax_mapping().

Change an instance of down_write_killable() to a simple down_write() where
there is no user process that might want to interrupt the operation.

In size_show(), the dax_dev_rwsem only needs a read lock, but was
acquiring a write lock. Change it to down_read_interruptible() so it
doesn't unnecessarily hold a write lock.

I think it makes sense to tell the story a bit about why the
delete_store() conversion was problematic, because the
unregister_dev_dax() changes were just a knock-on effect to fixing the
delete_store() flow.

Something like:

---
commit c05ae9d85b47 ("dax/bus.c: replace driver-core lock usage by a local rwsem")
aimed to undo device_lock() abuses for protecting changes to dax-driver
internal data-structures like the dax_region resource tree to
device-dax-instance range structures. However, the device_lock() was legitamately
enforcing that devices to be deleted were not current actively attached
to any driver nor assigned any capacity from the region.
---

...you can fill in a couple notes about the knock-on fixups after that
was restored.

This begs the question, why down_write_killable(), but not
device_lock_interruptible()?

I do not expect any of this is long running so likely down_write() is
sufficient here, especially since the heaviest locks to acquire are
already held by the time rwsem is considered.

Other than that this looks good to me:

Do you mean change the device_lock()s to device_lock_interruptible() in
addition to the taking the rwsem (i.e. not instead of the rwsem..)?
I guess I just restored what was there previously - but the
interruptible variant makes sense, I can make that change.

I mean convert the rwsem to drop _killable.

So the original code did device_lock(), then the rework added killable
rwsem (deleted device_lock()), and now the fixes add device_lock() back.
So now that there is a mix of killable/interruptible lock usage all the
locks should agree.

Since there really is no risk of these operations being long running
there is no driving need to make them killable/interruptible, so go with
the simple option.
