swap: fix set_blocksize race during swapon/swapoff
Fix race between swapoff and swapon. Swapoff used old_block_size from
swap_info outside of swapon_mutex so it could be overwritten by
concurrent swapon.
The race has visible effect only if more than one swap block device
exists with different block sizes (e.g. /dev/sda1 with block size 4096
and /dev/sdb1 with 512). In such case it leads to setting the blocksize
of swapped off device with wrong blocksize.
The bug can be triggered with multiple concurrent swapoff and swapon:
0. Swap for some device is on.
1. swapoff:
First the swapoff is called on this device and "struct swap_info_struct
*p" is assigned. This is done under swap_lock however this lock is
released for the call try_to_unuse().
2. swapon:
After the assignment above (and before acquiring swapon_mutex &
swap_lock by swapoff) the swapon is called on the same device.
The p->old_block_size is assigned to the value of block_size the device.
This block size should be the same as previous but sometimes it is not.
The swapon ends successfully.
3. swapoff:
Swapoff resumes, grabs the locks and mutex and continues to disable this
swap device. Now it sets the block size to value taken from swap_info
which was overwritten by swapon in 2.
