Commit 916f676f started reserving boot service code since some systems require you to keep that code around until SetVirtualAddressMap is called. However, in some cases those areas will overlap with reserved regions. The proper medium-term fix is to fix the bootloader to prevent the conflicts from occurring by moving the kernel to a better position, but the kernel should check for this possibility, and only reserve regions which can be reserved.

Hugh Dickins points out that lockdep (correctly) spots a potential deadlock on the anon_vma lock, because we now do a GFP_KERNEL allocation of anon_vma_chain while doing anon_vma_clone(). The problem is that page reclaim will want to take the anon_vma lock of any anonymous pages that it will try to reclaim. So re-organize the code in anon_vma_clone() slightly: first do just a GFP_NOWAIT allocation, which will usually work fine. But if that fails, let's just drop the lock and re-do the allocation, now with GFP_KERNEL. End result: not only do we avoid the locking problem, this also ends up getting better concurrency in case the allocation does need to block. Tim Chen reports that with all these anon_vma locking tweaks, we're now almost back up to the spinlock performance.

This matches the anon_vma_clone() case, and uses the same lock helper functions. Because of the need to potentially release the anon_vma's, it's a bit more complex, though. We traverse the 'vma->anon_vma_chain' in two phases: the first loop gets the anon_vma lock (with the helper function that only takes the lock once for the whole loop), and removes any entries that don't need any more processing. The second phase just traverses the remaining list entries (without holding the anon_vma lock), and does any actual freeing of the anon_vma's that is required.
