[PATCH v2] riscv: Safely remove entries from relocation list

From: Charlie Jenkins
Date: Tue Nov 21 2023 - 17:50:49 EST


Use the safe versions of list and hlist iteration to safely remove
entries from the module relocation lists. To allow mutliple threads to
load modules concurrently, move relocation list pointers onto the stack
rather than using global variables.

Fixes: 8fd6c5142395 ("riscv: Add remaining module relocations")
Reported-by: Ron Economos <re@xxxxxxxx>
Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-riscv/444de86a-7e7c-4de7-5d1d-c1c40eefa4ba@xxxxxxxx
Signed-off-by: Charlie Jenkins <charlie@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

Changes in v2:
- Support linking modules concurrently across threads.
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231120-module_linking_freeing-v1-1-fff81d7289fc@xxxxxxxxxxxx
