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.
