(cherry picked from commit fc04cb49) ext4_move_extents() checks the logical block contiguousness of original file with ext4_find_extent() and mext_next_extent(). Therefore the extent which ext4_ext_path structure indicates must not be changed between above functions. But in current implementation, there is no i_data_sem protection between ext4_ext_find_extent() and mext_next_extent(). So the extent which ext4_ext_path structure indicates may be overwritten by delalloc. As a result, ext4_move_extents() will exchange wrong blocks between original and donor files. I change the place where acquire/release i_data_sem to solve this problem. Moreover, I changed move_extent_per_page() to start transaction first, and then acquire i_data_sem. Without this change, there is a possibility of the deadlock between mmap() and ext4_move_extents(): * NOTE: "A", "B" and "C" mean different processes A-1: ext4_ext_move_extents() acquires i_data_sem of two inodes. B: do_page_fault() starts the transaction (T), and then tries to acquire i_data_sem. But process "A" is already holding it, so it is kept waiting. C: While "A" and "B" running, kjournald2 tries to commit transaction (T) but it is under updating, so kjournald2 waits for it. A-2: Call ext4_journal_start with holding i_data_sem, but transaction (T) is locked.
