Many thanks to Jann Horn for a detailed review of v0.5: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210908184905.163787-1-posk... The main change in this patchet vs v0.5 is pinning of pages containing struct umcg_task of RUNNING workers and their servers. This allows uaccess operations from sched_submit_work (preempt-disabled). The pages are pinned only for RUNNING workers, i.e. at most NR_CPUS pages are pinned by UMCG at any one time, across the whole machine. A smaller change is the move of worker wakeup processing from sched_update_worker() to exit_to_user_mode_loop(), to ensure that no kernel locks are held if the worker is descheduled there. Commit messages in patches 2 and 3 list more changes.
