ocfs2: fix deadlock in ocfs2_get_system_file_inode
syzbot has found a possible deadlock in ocfs2_get_system_file_inode [1]. The scenario is depicted here, CPU0 CPU1 lock(&ocfs2_file_ip_alloc_sem_key); lock(&osb->system_file_mutex); lock(&ocfs2_file_ip_alloc_sem_key); lock(&osb->system_file_mutex); The function calls which could lead to this are: CPU0 ocfs2_mknod - lock(&ocfs2_file_ip_alloc_sem_key); . . . ocfs2_get_system_file_inode - lock(&osb->system_file_mutex); CPU1 - ocfs2_fill_super - lock(&osb->system_file_mutex); . . . ocfs2_read_virt_blocks - lock(&ocfs2_file_ip_alloc_sem_key); This issue can be resolved by making the down_read -> down_read_try in the ocfs2_read_virt_blocks.
