| * mm: compaction: support triggering of proactive compaction by userCharan Teja Reddy2021-09-031-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The proactive compaction[1] gets triggered for every 500msec and run compaction on the node for COMPACTION_HPAGE_ORDER (usually order-9) pages based on the value set to sysctl.compaction_proactiveness. Triggering the compaction for every 500msec in search of COMPACTION_HPAGE_ORDER pages is not needed for all applications, especially on the embedded system usecases which may have few MB's of RAM. Enabling the proactive compaction in its state will endup in running almost always on such systems. Other side, proactive compaction can still be very much useful for getting a set of higher order pages in some controllable manner(controlled by using the sysctl.compaction_proactiveness). So, on systems where enabling the proactive compaction always may proove not required, can trigger the same from user space on write to its sysctl interface. As an example, say app launcher decide to launch the memory heavy application which can be launched fast if it gets more higher order pages thus launcher can prepare the system in advance by triggering the proactive compaction from userspace. This triggering of proactive compaction is done on a write to sysctl.compaction_proactiveness by user.

It is similar to the old vm.percpu_pagelist_fraction. The old sysctl increased both pcp->batch and pcp->high with the higher pcp->high potentially reducing zone->lock contention. However, the higher pcp->batch value also potentially increased allocation latency while the PCP was refilled. This sysctl only adjusts pcp->high so that zone->lock contention is potentially reduced but allocation latency during a PCP refill remains the same. # grep -E "high:|batch" /proc/zoneinfo | tail -2 high: 649 batch: 63 # sysctl vm.percpu_pagelist_high_fraction=8 # grep -E "high:|batch" /proc/zoneinfo | tail -2 high: 35071 batch: 63 # sysctl vm.percpu_pagelist_high_fraction=64 high: 4383 batch: 63 # sysctl vm.percpu_pagelist_high_fraction=0 high: 649 batch: 63 [mgorman@techsingularity.net: fix documentation] Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20210528151010.GQ30378@techsingularity.net Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20210525080119.5455-7-mgorman@techsingularity.net Signed-off-by: Mel Gorman <mgorman@techsingularity.net> Acked-by: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com> Acked-by: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz> Cc: Hillf Danton <hdanton@sina.com> Cc: Michal Hocko <mhocko@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
| * | mm/page_alloc: delete vm.percpu_pagelist_fractionMel Gorman2021-06-291-8/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Patch series "Calculate pcp->high based on zone sizes and active CPUs", v2. The per-cpu page allocator (PCP) is meant to reduce contention on the zone lock but the sizing of batch and high is archaic and neither takes the zone size into account or the number of CPUs local to a zone. With larger zones and more CPUs per node, the contention is getting worse. Furthermore, the fact that vm.percpu_pagelist_fraction adjusts both batch and high values means that the sysctl can reduce zone lock contention but also increase allocation latencies. This series disassociates pcp->high from pcp->batch and then scales pcp->high based on the size of the local zone with limited impact to reclaim and accounting for active CPUs but leaves pcp->batch static. It also adapts the number of pages that can be on the pcp list based on recent freeing patterns. The motivation is partially to adjust to larger memory sizes but is also driven by the fact that large batches of page freeing via release_pages() often shows zone contention as a major part of the problem. Another is a bug report based on an older kernel where a multi-terabyte process can takes several minutes to exit. A workaround was to use vm.percpu_pagelist_fraction to increase the pcp->high value but testing indicated that a production workload could not use the same values because of an increase in allocation latencies. Unfortunately, I cannot reproduce this test case myself as the multi-terabyte machines are in active use but it should alleviate the problem. The series aims to address both and partially acts as a pre-requisite. pcp only works with order-0 which is useless for SLUB (when using high orders) and THP (unconditionally). To store high-order pages on PCP, the pcp->high values need to be increased first. This patch (of 6): The vm.percpu_pagelist_fraction is used to increase the batch and high limits for the per-cpu page allocator (PCP). The intent behind the sysctl is to reduce zone lock acquisition when allocating/freeing pages but it has a problem. While it can decrease contention, it can also increase latency on the allocation side due to unreasonably large batch sizes. This leads to games where an administrator adjusts percpu_pagelist_fraction on the fly to work around contention and allocation latency problems. This series aims to alleviate the problems with zone lock contention while avoiding the allocation-side latency problems. For the purposes of review, it's easier to remove this sysctl now and reintroduce a similar sysctl later in the series that deals only with pcp->high.

| | * bpf: Add kconfig knob for disabling unpriv bpf by defaultDaniel Borkmann2021-05-111-5/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a kconfig knob which allows for unprivileged bpf to be disabled by default. If set, the knob sets /proc/sys/kernel/unprivileged_bpf_disabled to value of 2. This still allows a transition of 2 -> {0,1} through an admin. Similarly, this also still keeps 1 -> {1} behavior intact, so that once set to permanently disabled, it cannot be undone aside from a reboot. We've also added extra2 with max of 2 for the procfs handler, so that an admin still has a chance to toggle between 0 <-> 2. Either way, as an additional alternative, applications can make use of CAP_BPF that we added a while ago.

| * | fanotify: configurable limits via sysfsAmir Goldstein2021-03-161-1/+11
| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | fanotify has some hardcoded limits. The only APIs to escape those limits are FAN_UNLIMITED_QUEUE and FAN_UNLIMITED_MARKS. Allow finer grained tuning of the system limits via sysfs tunables under /proc/sys/fs/fanotify, similar to tunables under /proc/sys/fs/inotify, with some minor differences. - max_queued_events - global system tunable for group queue size limit. Like the inotify tunable with the same name, it defaults to 16384 and applies on initialization of a new group. - max_user_marks - user ns tunable for marks limit per user. Like the inotify tunable named max_user_watches, on a machine with sufficient RAM and it defaults to 1048576 in init userns and can be further limited per containing user ns. - max_user_groups - user ns tunable for number of groups per user. Like the inotify tunable named max_user_instances, it defaults to 128 in init userns and can be further limited per containing user ns. The slightly different tunable names used for fanotify are derived from the "group" and "mark" terminology used in the fanotify man pages and throughout the code. Considering the fact that the default value for max_user_instances was increased in kernel v5.10 from 8192 to 1048576, leaving the legacy fanotify limit of 8192 marks per group in addition to the max_user_marks limit makes little sense, so the per group marks limit has been removed. Note that when a group is initialized with FAN_UNLIMITED_MARKS, its own marks are not accounted in the per user marks account, so in effect the limit of max_user_marks is only for the collection of groups that are not initialized with FAN_UNLIMITED_MARKS.

* mm: allow a controlled amount of unfairness in the page lockLinus Torvalds2020-09-171-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 2a9127fcf229 ("mm: rewrite wait_on_page_bit_common() logic") made the page locking entirely fair, in that if a waiter came in while the lock was held, the lock would be transferred to the lockers strictly in order. That was intended to finally get rid of the long-reported watchdog failures that involved the page lock under extreme load, where a process could end up waiting essentially forever, as other page lockers stole the lock from under it. It also improved some benchmarks, but it ended up causing huge performance regressions on others, simply because fair lock behavior doesn't end up giving out the lock as aggressively, causing better worst-case latency, but potentially much worse average latencies and throughput. Instead of reverting that change entirely, this introduces a controlled amount of unfairness, with a sysctl knob to tune it if somebody needs to. But the default value should hopefully be good for any normal load, allowing a few rounds of lock stealing, but enforcing the strict ordering before the lock has been stolen too many times. There is also a hint from Matthieu Baerts that the fair page coloring may end up exposing an ABBA deadlock that is hidden by the usual optimistic lock stealing, and while the unfairness doesn't fix the fundamental issue (and I'm still looking at that), it avoids it in practice. The amount of unfairness can be modified by writing a new value to the 'sysctl_page_lock_unfairness' variable (default value of 5, exposed through /proc/sys/vm/page_lock_unfairness), but that is hopefully something we'd use mainly for debugging rather than being necessary for any deep system tuning. This whole issue has exposed just how critical the page lock can be, and how contended it gets under certain locks. And the main contention doesn't really seem to be anything related to IO (which was the origin of this lock), but for things like just verifying that the page file mapping is stable while faulting in the page into a page table.

* mm: proactive compactionNitin Gupta2020-08-121-0/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For some applications, we need to allocate almost all memory as hugepages. However, on a running system, higher-order allocations can fail if the memory is fragmented. Linux kernel currently does on-demand compaction as we request more hugepages, but this style of compaction incurs very high latency. Experiments with one-time full memory compaction (followed by hugepage allocations) show that kernel is able to restore a highly fragmented memory state to a fairly compacted memory state within <1 sec for a 32G system. Such data suggests that a more proactive compaction can help us allocate a large fraction of memory as hugepages keeping allocation latencies low. For a more proactive compaction, the approach taken here is to define a new sysctl called 'vm.compaction_proactiveness' which dictates bounds for external fragmentation which kcompactd tries to maintain. The tunable takes a value in range [0, 100], with a default of 20. Note that a previous version of this patch [1] was found to introduce too many tunables (per-order extfrag{low, high}), but this one reduces them to just one sysctl. Also, the new tunable is an opaque value instead of asking for specific bounds of "external fragmentation", which would have been difficult to estimate. The internal interpretation of this opaque value allows for future fine-tuning. Currently, we use a simple translation from this tunable to [low, high] "fragmentation score" thresholds (low=100-proactiveness, high=low+10%). The score for a node is defined as weighted mean of per-zone external fragmentation. A zone's present_pages determines its weight. To periodically check per-node score, we reuse per-node kcompactd threads, which are woken up every 500 milliseconds to check the same. If a node's score exceeds its high threshold (as derived from user-provided proactiveness value), proactive compaction is started until its score reaches its low threshold value. By default, proactiveness is set to 20, which implies threshold values of low=80 and high=90. This patch is largely based on ideas from Michal Hocko [2]. See also the LWN article [3]. Performance data ================ System: x64_64, 1T RAM, 80 CPU threads. Kernel: 5.6.0-rc3 + this patch echo madvise | sudo tee /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled echo madvise | sudo tee /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/defrag Before starting the driver, the system was fragmented from a userspace program that allocates all memory and then for each 2M aligned section, frees 3/4 of base pages using munmap. The workload is mainly anonymous userspace pages, which are easy to move around. I intentionally avoided unmovable pages in this test to see how much latency we incur when hugepage allocations hit direct compaction. 1. Kernel hugepage allocation latencies With the system in such a fragmented state, a kernel driver then allocates as many hugepages as possible and measures allocation latency: (all latency values are in microseconds) - With vanilla 5.6.0-rc3 percentile latency –––––––––– ––––––– 5 7894 10 9496 25 12561 30 15295 40 18244 50 21229 60 27556 75 30147 80 31047 90 32859 95 33799 Total 2M hugepages allocated = 383859 (749G worth of hugepages out of 762G total free => 98% of free memory could be allocated as hugepages) - With 5.6.0-rc3 + this patch, with proactiveness=20 sysctl -w vm.compaction_proactiveness=20 percentile latency –––––––––– ––––––– 5 2 10 2 25 3 30 3 40 3 50 4 60 4 75 4 80 4 90 5 95 429 Total 2M hugepages allocated = 384105 (750G worth of hugepages out of 762G total free => 98% of free memory could be allocated as hugepages) 2. JAVA heap allocation In this test, we first fragment memory using the same method as for (1). Then, we start a Java process with a heap size set to 700G and request the heap to be allocated with THP hugepages. We also set THP to madvise to allow hugepage backing of this heap. /usr/bin/time java -Xms700G -Xmx700G -XX:+UseTransparentHugePages -XX:+AlwaysPreTouch The above command allocates 700G of Java heap using hugepages. - With vanilla 5.6.0-rc3 17.39user 1666.48system 27:37.89elapsed - With 5.6.0-rc3 + this patch, with proactiveness=20 8.35user 194.58system 3:19.62elapsed Elapsed time remains around 3:15, as proactiveness is further increased. Note that proactive compaction happens throughout the runtime of these workloads. The situation of one-time compaction, sufficient to supply hugepages for following allocation stream, can probably happen for more extreme proactiveness values, like 80 or 90. In the above Java workload, proactiveness is set to 20. The test starts with a node's score of 80 or higher, depending on the delay between the fragmentation step and starting the benchmark, which gives more-or-less time for the initial round of compaction. As t he benchmark consumes hugepages, node's score quickly rises above the high threshold (90) and proactive compaction starts again, which brings down the score to the low threshold level (80). Repeat. bpftrace also confirms proactive compaction running 20+ times during the runtime of this Java benchmark. kcompactd threads consume 100% of one of the CPUs while it tries to bring a node's score within thresholds. Backoff behavior ================ Above workloads produce a memory state which is easy to compact. However, if memory is filled with unmovable pages, proactive compaction should essentially back off. To test this aspect: - Created a kernel driver that allocates almost all memory as hugepages followed by freeing first 3/4 of each hugepage. - Set proactiveness=40 - Note that proactive_compact_node() is deferred maximum number of times with HPAGE_FRAG_CHECK_INTERVAL_MSEC of wait between each check (=> ~30 seconds between retries).

* mm: adjust vm_committed_as_batch according to vm overcommit policyFeng Tang2020-08-071-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When checking a performance change for will-it-scale scalability mmap test [1], we found very high lock contention for spinlock of percpu counter 'vm_committed_as': 94.14% 0.35% [kernel.kallsyms] [k] _raw_spin_lock_irqsave 48.21% _raw_spin_lock_irqsave;percpu_counter_add_batch;__vm_enough_memory;mmap_region;do_mmap; 45.91% _raw_spin_lock_irqsave;percpu_counter_add_batch;__do_munmap; Actually this heavy lock contention is not always necessary. The 'vm_committed_as' needs to be very precise when the strict OVERCOMMIT_NEVER policy is set, which requires a rather small batch number for the percpu counter. So keep 'batch' number unchanged for strict OVERCOMMIT_NEVER policy, and lift it to 64X for OVERCOMMIT_ALWAYS and OVERCOMMIT_GUESS policies. Also add a sysctl handler to adjust it when the policy is reconfigured. Benchmark with the same testcase in [1] shows 53% improvement on a 8C/16T desktop, and 2097%(20X) on a 4S/72C/144T server. We tested with test platforms in 0day (server, desktop and laptop), and 80%+ platforms shows improvements with that test. And whether it shows improvements depends on if the test mmap size is bigger than the batch number computed. And if the lift is 16X, 1/3 of the platforms will show improvements, though it should help the mmap/unmap usage generally, as Michal Hocko mentioned: : I believe that there are non-synthetic worklaods which would benefit from : a larger batch. E.g. large in memory databases which do large mmaps : during startups from multiple threads.

* sched/uclamp: Add a new sysctl to control RT default boost valueQais Yousef2020-07-291-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | RT tasks by default run at the highest capacity/performance level. When uclamp is selected this default behavior is retained by enforcing the requested uclamp.min (p->uclamp_req[UCLAMP_MIN]) of the RT tasks to be uclamp_none(UCLAMP_MAX), which is SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE; the maximum value. This is also referred to as 'the default boost value of RT tasks'. See commit 1a00d999971c ("sched/uclamp: Set default clamps for RT tasks"). On battery powered devices, it is desired to control this default (currently hardcoded) behavior at runtime to reduce energy consumed by RT tasks. For example, a mobile device manufacturer where big.LITTLE architecture is dominant, the performance of the little cores varies across SoCs, and on high end ones the big cores could be too power hungry. Given the diversity of SoCs, the new knob allows manufactures to tune the best performance/power for RT tasks for the particular hardware they run on. They could opt to further tune the value when the user selects a different power saving mode or when the device is actively charging. The runtime aspect of it further helps in creating a single kernel image that can be run on multiple devices that require different tuning. Keep in mind that a lot of RT tasks in the system are created by the kernel. On Android for instance I can see over 50 RT tasks, only a handful of which created by the Android framework. To control the default behavior globally by system admins and device integrator, introduce the new sysctl_sched_uclamp_util_min_rt_default to change the default boost value of the RT tasks. I anticipate this to be mostly in the form of modifying the init script of a particular device. To avoid polluting the fast path with unnecessary code, the approach taken is to synchronously do the update by traversing all the existing tasks in the system. This could race with a concurrent fork(), which is dealt with by introducing sched_post_fork() function which will ensure the racy fork will get the right update applied. Tested on Juno-r2 in combination with the RT capacity awareness [1]. By default an RT task will go to the highest capacity CPU and run at the maximum frequency, which is particularly energy inefficient on high end mobile devices because the biggest core[s] are 'huge' and power hungry. With this patch the RT task can be controlled to run anywhere by default, and doesn't cause the frequency to be maximum all the time. Yet any task that really needs to be boosted can easily escape this default behavior by modifying its requested uclamp.min value (p->uclamp_req[UCLAMP_MIN]) via sched_setattr() syscall.

* kernel/sysctl.c: ignore out-of-range taint bits introduced via kernel.taintedRafael Aquini2020-06-081-3/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Users with SYS_ADMIN capability can add arbitrary taint flags to the running kernel by writing to /proc/sys/kernel/tainted or issuing the command 'sysctl -w kernel.tainted=...'. This interface, however, is open for any integer value and this might cause an invalid set of flags being committed to the tainted_mask bitset. This patch introduces a simple way for proc_taint() to ignore any eventual invalid bit coming from the user input before committing those bits to the kernel tainted_mask.

* panic: add sysctl to dump all CPUs backtraces on oops eventGuilherme G. Piccoli2020-06-081-0/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Usually when the kernel reaches an oops condition, it's a point of no return; in case not enough debug information is available in the kernel splat, one of the last resorts would be to collect a kernel crash dump and analyze it. The problem with this approach is that in order to collect the dump, a panic is required (to kexec-load the crash kernel). When in an environment of multiple virtual machines, users may prefer to try living with the oops, at least until being able to properly shutdown their VMs / finish their important tasks. This patch implements a way to collect a bit more debug details when an oops event is reached, by printing all the CPUs backtraces through the usage of NMIs (on architectures that support that). The sysctl added (and documented) here was called "oops_all_cpu_backtrace", and when set will (as the name suggests) dump all CPUs backtraces. Far from ideal, this may be the last option though for users that for some reason cannot panic on oops. Most of times oopses are clear enough to indicate the kernel portion that must be investigated, but in virtual environments it's possible to observe hypervisor/KVM issues that could lead to oopses shown in other guests CPUs (like virtual APIC crashes). This patch hence aims to help debug such complex issues without resorting to kdump. Signed-off-by: Guilherme G.

* kernel/hung_task.c: introduce sysctl to print all traces when a hung task is ↵Guilherme G. Piccoli2020-06-081-0/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | detected Commit 401c636a0eeb ("kernel/hung_task.c: show all hung tasks before panic") introduced a change in that we started to show all CPUs backtraces when a hung task is detected _and_ the sysctl/kernel parameter "hung_task_panic" is set. The idea is good, because usually when observing deadlocks (that may lead to hung tasks), the culprit is another task holding a lock and not necessarily the task detected as hung. The problem with this approach is that dumping backtraces is a slightly expensive task, specially printing that on console (and specially in many CPU machines, as servers commonly found nowadays). So, users that plan to collect a kdump to investigate the hung tasks and narrow down the deadlock definitely don't need the CPUs backtrace on dmesg/console, which will delay the panic and pollute the log (crash tool would easily grab all CPUs traces with 'bt -a' command). Also, there's the reciprocal scenario: some users may be interested in seeing the CPUs backtraces but not have the system panic when a hung task is detected. The current approach hence is almost as embedding a policy in the kernel, by forcing the CPUs backtraces' dump (only) on hung_task_panic. This patch decouples the panic event on hung task from the CPUs backtraces dump, by creating (and documenting) a new sysctl called "hung_task_all_cpu_backtrace", analog to the approach taken on soft/hard lockups, that have both a panic and an "all_cpu_backtrace" sysctl to allow individual control. The new mechanism for dumping the CPUs backtraces on hung task detection respects "hung_task_warnings" by not dumping the traces in case there's no warnings left. Signed-off-by: Guilherme G.

* kernel: add panic_on_taintRafael Aquini2020-06-081-1/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Analogously to the introduction of panic_on_warn, this patch introduces a kernel option named panic_on_taint in order to provide a simple and generic way to stop execution and catch a coredump when the kernel gets tainted by any given flag. This is useful for debugging sessions as it avoids having to rebuild the kernel to explicitly add calls to panic() into the code sites that introduce the taint flags of interest. For instance, if one is interested in proceeding with a post-mortem analysis at the point a given code path is hitting a bad page (i.e. unaccount_page_cache_page(), or slab_bug()), a coredump can be collected by rebooting the kernel with 'panic_on_taint=0x20' amended to the command line. Another, perhaps less frequent, use for this option would be as a means for assuring a security policy case where only a subset of taints, or no single taint (in paranoid mode), is allowed for the running system. The optional switch 'nousertaint' is handy in this particular scenario, as it will avoid userspace induced crashes by writes to sysctl interface /proc/sys/kernel/tainted causing false positive hits for such policies.

* mm/compaction: Disable compact_unevictable_allowed on RTSebastian Andrzej Siewior2020-04-021-1/+28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since commit 5bbe3547aa3ba ("mm: allow compaction of unevictable pages") it is allowed to examine mlocked pages and compact them by default. On -RT even minor pagefaults are problematic because it may take a few 100us to resolve them and until then the task is blocked. Make compact_unevictable_allowed = 0 default and issue a warning on RT if it is changed.

* sysctl/sysrq: Remove __sysrq_enabled copyDmitry Safonov2020-03-071-19/+22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Many embedded boards have a disconnected TTL level serial which can generate some garbage that can lead to spurious false sysrq detects. Currently, sysrq can be either completely disabled for serial console or always disabled (with CONFIG_MAGIC_SYSRQ_SERIAL), since commit 732dbf3a6104 ("serial: do not accept sysrq characters via serial port") At Arista, we have such boards that can generate BREAK and random garbage. While disabling sysrq for serial console would solve the problem with spurious false sysrq triggers, it's also desirable to have a way to enable sysrq back. Having the way to enable sysrq was beneficial to debug lockups with a manual investigation in field and on the other side preventing false sysrq detections. As a preparation to add sysrq_toggle_support() call into uart, remove a private copy of sysrq_enabled from sysctl - it should reflect the actual status of sysrq. Furthermore, the private copy isn't correct already in case sysrq_always_enabled is true. So, remove __sysrq_enabled and use a getter-helper sysrq_mask() to check sysrq_key_op enabled status.
