This is the deadlock scenario:
osnoise_hotplug_workfn()
guard(cpus_read_lock)(); // first lock call
start_kthread(cpu)
if (IS_ERR(kthread)) {
stop_per_cpu_kthreads(); {
cpus_read_lock(); // second lock call. Cause the AA deadlock
}
}
It is not necessary to call stop_per_cpu_kthreads() which stops osnoise
kthread for every other CPUs in the system if a failure occurs during
hotplug of a certain CPU.
For start_per_cpu_kthreads(), if the start_kthread() call fails,
this function calls stop_per_cpu_kthreads() to handle the error.
Therefore, similarly, there is no need to call stop_per_cpu_kthreads()
again within start_kthread().
So just remove stop_per_cpu_kthreads() from start_kthread to solve this issue.

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 reStructuredText 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.
