f2fs: avoid deadlock during evict after f2fs_gc
o Deadlock case #1
Thread 1:
- writeback_sb_inodes
- do_writepages
- f2fs_write_data_pages
- write_cache_pages
- f2fs_write_data_page
- f2fs_balance_fs
- wait mutex_lock(gc_mutex)
Thread 2:
- f2fs_balance_fs
- mutex_lock(gc_mutex)
- f2fs_gc
- f2fs_iget
- wait iget_locked(inode->i_lock)
Thread 3:
- do_unlinkat
- iput
- lock(inode->i_lock)
- evict
- inode_wait_for_writeback
o Deadlock case #2
Thread 1:
- __writeback_single_inode
: set I_SYNC
- do_writepages
- f2fs_write_data_page
- f2fs_balance_fs
- f2fs_gc
- iput
- evict
- inode_wait_for_writeback(I_SYNC)
In order to avoid this, even though iput is called with the zero-reference
count, we need to stop the eviction procedure if the inode is on writeback.
So this patch links f2fs_drop_inode which checks the I_SYNC flag.
