modules: lockdep: Suppress suspicious RCU usage warning
While running kprobe module test, find_module_all() caused a suspicious RCU usage warning. ----- ============================= WARNING: suspicious RCU usage 5.4.0-next-20191202+ #63 Not tainted ----------------------------- kernel/module.c:619 RCU-list traversed in non-reader section!! other info that might help us debug this: rcu_scheduler_active = 2, debug_locks = 1 1 lock held by rmmod/642: #0: ffffffff8227da80 (module_mutex){+.+.}, at: __x64_sys_delete_module+0x9a/0x230 stack backtrace: CPU: 0 PID: 642 Comm: rmmod Not tainted 5.4.0-next-20191202+ #63 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS rel-1.12.1-0-ga5cab58e9a3f-prebuilt.qemu.org 04/01/2014 Call Trace: dump_stack+0x71/0xa0 find_module_all+0xc1/0xd0 __x64_sys_delete_module+0xac/0x230 ? do_syscall_64+0x12/0x1f0 do_syscall_64+0x50/0x1f0 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x49/0xbe RIP: 0033:0x4b6d49 ----- This is because list_for_each_entry_rcu(modules) is called without rcu_read_lock(). This is safe because the module_mutex is locked. Pass lockdep_is_held(&module_mutex) to the list_for_each_entry_rcu() to suppress this warning, This also fixes similar issue in mod_find() and each_symbol_section().
