btrfs: Fix lockdep warning of btrfs_run_delayed_iputs()
Liu Bo <bo.li.liu@oracle.com> reported a lockdep warning of
delayed_iput_sem in xfstests generic/241:
[ 2061.345955] =============================================
[ 2061.346027] [ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ]
[ 2061.346027] 4.1.0+ #268 Tainted: G W
[ 2061.346027] ---------------------------------------------
[ 2061.346027] btrfs-cleaner/3045 is trying to acquire lock:
[ 2061.346027] (&fs_info->delayed_iput_sem){++++..}, at:
[<ffffffff814063ab>] btrfs_run_delayed_iputs+0x6b/0x100
[ 2061.346027] but task is already holding lock:
[ 2061.346027] (&fs_info->delayed_iput_sem){++++..}, at: [<ffffffff814063ab>] btrfs_run_delayed_iputs+0x6b/0x100
[ 2061.346027] other info that might help us debug this:
[ 2061.346027] Possible unsafe locking scenario:

[ 2061.346027] ----
[ 2061.346027] lock(&fs_info->delayed_iput_sem);
[ 2061.346027] lock(&fs_info->delayed_iput_sem);
[ 2061.346027]
*** DEADLOCK ***
It is rarely happened, about 1/400 in my test env.
The reason is recursion of btrfs_run_delayed_iputs():
cleaner_kthread
-> btrfs_run_delayed_iputs() *1
-> get delayed_iput_sem lock *2
-> iput()
-> ...
-> btrfs_commit_transaction()
-> btrfs_run_delayed_iputs() *1
-> get delayed_iput_sem lock (dead lock) *2
*1: recursion of btrfs_run_delayed_iputs()
*2: warning of lockdep about delayed_iput_sem
When fs is in high stress, new iputs may added into fs_info->delayed_iputs
list when btrfs_run_delayed_iputs() is running, which cause
second btrfs_run_delayed_iputs() run into down_read(&fs_info->delayed_iput_sem)
again, and cause above lockdep warning.
Actually, it will not cause real problem because both locks are read lock,
but to avoid lockdep warning, we can do a fix.
Fix:
Don't do btrfs_run_delayed_iputs() in btrfs_commit_transaction() for
cleaner_kthread thread to break above recursion path.
cleaner_kthread is calling btrfs_run_delayed_iputs() explicitly in code,
and don't need to call btrfs_run_delayed_iputs() again in
btrfs_commit_transaction(), it also give us a bonus to avoid stack overflow.
Test:
No above lockdep warning after patch in 1200 generic/241 tests.
