When executing the LOCK06 locktorture scenario featuring percpu-rwsem, the RCU callback rcu_sync_func() may still be pending after locktorture module is removed. This can in turn lead to the following Oops: BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffffffc00eb920 #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode #PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page PGD 6500a067 P4D 6500a067 PUD 6500c067 PMD 13a36c067 PTE 800000013691c163 Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP CPU: 1 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/1 Not tainted 5.9.0-rc5+ #4 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996) RIP: 0010:rcu_cblist_dequeue+0x12/0x30 Call Trace: <IRQ> rcu_core+0x1b1/0x860 __do_softirq+0xfe/0x326 asm_call_on_stack+0x12/0x20 </IRQ> do_softirq_own_stack+0x5f/0x80 irq_exit_rcu+0xaf/0xc0 sysvec_apic_timer_interrupt+0x2e/0xb0 asm_sysvec_apic_timer_interrupt+0x12/0x20 This commit avoids tis problem by adding an exit hook in lock_torture_ops and using it to call percpu_free_rwsem() for percpu rwsem torture during the module-cleanup function, thus ensuring that rcu_sync_func() completes before module exits. It is also necessary to call the exit hook if lock_torture_init() fails half-way, so this commit also adds an ->init_called field in lock_torture_cxt to indicate that exit hook, if present, must be called.

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 Restructured Text 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.
