mm/mlock: use the IRQ-safe accessor for NR_MLOCK in __munlock_folio()
NR_MLOCK is updated from interrupt context. __free_pages_prepare() clears a stray PG_mlocked and adjusts NR_MLOCK, and a folio can reach it with the flag still set from a bio completion handler: __free_pages_ok+0x6af/0x7a0 <IRQ> __bio_release_pages+0xde/0x260 __iomap_dio_bio_end_io+0x16e/0x1a0 blk_update_request+0x14b/0x3d0 blk_mq_end_request+0x18/0x30 blk_done_softirq+0x49/0x60 The folio gets there like this. A MAP_SHARED file mapping is mlocked, so its page cache folios carry PG_mlocked, and an O_DIRECT write sourced from that mapping GUP-pins those same folios. munlock() then runs mlock_vma_pages_range(), which clears VM_LOCKED before walking the page tables to munlock each folio. A concurrent hole punch reaches the folio through the rmap (i_mmap_rwsem, not mmap_lock) and can land inside that window: __folio_remove_rmap() -> munlock_vma_folio() sees VM_LOCKED already clear, so it neither queues the folio on the mlock batch nor takes a reference, and the pte it clears makes the pending mlock_pte_range() walk skip the folio at its !pte_present() check. filemap_remove_folio() then drops the page cache reference, leaving the bio's pin as the last one, released from the completion handler above. So __zone_stat_mod_folio() here needs interrupts disabled, not merely preemption, and __munlock_folio() has a path where they are not: when the folio has already been taken off the LRU by somebody else the function jumps straight to the counter update without taking the lruvec lock. The read-modify-write of the per-CPU NR_MLOCK diff can then be interrupted by the softirq above, and one of the two decrements is lost, leaving Mlocked in /proc/meminfo permanently overstated. Use zone_stat_mod_folio(). mod_zone_state()'s this_cpu_try_cmpxchg() is atomic against a same-CPU interrupt and retries, and on the path where the lruvec lock is held its cost is negligible next to the lock itself. The UNEVICTABLE_PG* events are deliberately left on the __ accessors: they occupy different vm_event_states slots from the UNEVICTABLE_PGCLEARED that __free_pages_prepare() bumps, and nothing updates those two from interrupt context.
