commit 1b0fb5a5 upstream. __get_memory_limit() tests if dm_bufio_cache_size changed and calls __cache_size_refresh() if it did. It takes dm_bufio_clients_lock while it already holds the client lock. However, lock ordering is violated because in cleanup_old_buffers() dm_bufio_clients_lock is taken before the client lock. This results in a possible deadlock and lockdep engine warning. Fix this deadlock by changing mutex_lock() to mutex_trylock(). If the lock can't be taken, it will be re-checked next time when a new buffer is allocated. Also add "unlikely" to the if condition, so that the optimizer assumes that the condition is false.
