Linux kernel source tree
Think about the below scenario:
CPU1 CPU2
z3fold_reclaim_page z3fold_free
spin_lock(&pool->lock) get_z3fold_header -- hold page_lock
kref_get_unless_zero
kref_put--zhdr->refcount can be 1 now
!z3fold_page_trylock
kref_put -- zhdr->refcount is 0 now
release_z3fold_page
WARN_ON(!list_empty(&zhdr->buddy)); -- we're on buddy now!
spin_lock(&pool->lock); -- deadlock here!
z3fold_reclaim_page might race with z3fold_free and will lead to pool lock
deadlock and zhdr buddy non-empty warning. To fix this, defer getting the
refcount until page_lock is held just like what __z3fold_alloc does. Note
this has the side effect that we won't break the reclaim if we meet a soon
to be released z3fold page now.

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.
