sched/membarrier: reduce the ability to hammer on sys_membarrier
stable inclusion from stable-v5.10.210 commit db896bbe4a9c67cee377e5f6a743350d3ae4acf6 category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/src-openeuler/kernel/issues/I93SNV CVE: CVE-2024-26602 Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=db896bbe4a9c67cee377e5f6a743350d3ae4acf6 -------------------------------- commit 944d5fe50f3f03daacfea16300e656a1691c4a23 upstream. On some systems, sys_membarrier can be very expensive, causing overall slowdowns for everything. So put a lock on the path in order to serialize the accesses to prevent the ability for this to be called at too high of a frequency and saturate the machine.
