powerpc/pseries: Perform full re-add of CPU for topology update post-migration
[ Upstream commit 81b61324922c67f73813d8a9c175f3c153f6a1c6 ] On pseries systems, performing a partition migration can result in altering the nodes a CPU is assigned to on the destination system. For exampl, pre-migration on the source system CPUs are in node 1 and 3, post-migration on the destination system CPUs are in nodes 2 and 3. Handling the node change for a CPU can cause corruption in the slab cache if we hit a timing where a CPUs node is changed while cache_reap() is invoked. The corruption occurs because the slab cache code appears to rely on the CPU and slab cache pages being on the same node. The current dynamic updating of a CPUs node done in arch/powerpc/mm/numa.c does not prevent us from hitting this scenario. Changing the device tree property update notification handler that recognizes an affinity change for a CPU to do a full DLPAR remove and add of the CPU instead of dynamically changing its node resolves this issue.
