[PATCH v1] proc/vmcore: fix false positive lockdep warning

Wed Jan 19 03:37:02 PST 2022
Lockdep complains that we do during mmap of the vmcore:
down_write(mmap_lock);
down_read(vmcore_cb_rwsem);
And during read of the vmcore:
down_read(vmcore_cb_rwsem);
down_read(mmap_lock);
We cannot possibly deadlock when only taking vmcore_cb_rwsem in read
mode, however, it's hard to teach that to lockdep.
So instead, convert to srcu to make lockdep happy. We need srcu as our
callbacks can sleep. Witht his change, I cannot trigger any lockdep
complaint.
