Maksym Planeta c0c082fef5 Grab mm lock before grabbing pt lock
[ Upstream commit 6d002348789bc16e9203e9818b7a3688787e3b29 ]

Function xen_pin_page calls xen_pte_lock, which in turn grab page
table lock (ptlock). When locking, xen_pte_lock expect mm->page_table_lock
to be held before grabbing ptlock, but this does not happen when pinning
is caused by xen_mm_pin_all.

This commit addresses lockdep warning below, which shows up when
suspending a Xen VM.

README

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.
