f2fs: fix recursive lock by f2fs_setxattr
This patch should resolve the following recursive lock. [<ffffffff8135a9c3>] call_rwsem_down_write_failed+0x13/0x20 [<ffffffffa01749dc>] f2fs_setxattr+0x5c/0xa0 [f2fs] [<ffffffffa0174c99>] __f2fs_set_acl+0x1b9/0x340 [f2fs] [<ffffffffa017515a>] f2fs_init_acl+0x4a/0xcb [f2fs] [<ffffffffa0159abe>] __f2fs_add_link+0x26e/0x780 [f2fs] [<ffffffffa015d4d8>] f2fs_mkdir+0xb8/0x150 [f2fs] [<ffffffff811cebd7>] vfs_mkdir+0xb7/0x160 [<ffffffff811cf89b>] SyS_mkdir+0xab/0xe0 [<ffffffff817244bf>] tracesys+0xe1/0xe6 [<ffffffffffffffff>] 0xffffffffffffffff The call path indicates: - f2fs_add_link : down_write(&fi->i_sem); - init_inode_metadata - f2fs_init_acl - __f2fs_set_acl - f2fs_setxattr : down_write(&fi->i_sem); Here we should not call f2fs_setxattr, but __f2fs_setxattr. But __f2fs_setxattr is a static function in xattr.c, so that I found the other generic approach to use f2fs_setxattr. In f2fs_setxattr, the page pointer is only given from init_inode_metadata. So, this patch adds this condition to avoid this in f2fs_setxattr. Signed-off-by: Jaegeuk Kim <jaegeuk@kernel.org>
