I think we cannot take inode_lock before claim_swapfile() because we can
have circular locking dependency as:

claim_swapfile()
-> blkdev_get()    -> __blkdev_get()
      -> mutex_lock(&bdev->bd_mutex)
      -> bd_set_size()
         -> inode_lock(&bdev->bd_inode);

Ah, good point. Thank you for doing the research on that. :)

So, one thing we can do is to move inode_lock() and "if (IS_SWAPFILE(..))
..." out of claim_swapfile(). In this case, the "bad_swap" section must
check if "inode_is_locked" to call "inode_unlock".

I think I wouldn't rely on inode_is_locked and structure the error
escape as follows:

	err = claim_swapfile()
	if (err)
		goto bad_swap;

	inode_lock()
	if (IS_SWAPFILE)
		goto unlock_swap;

	other_stuff()

unlock_swap:
	inode_unlock()
bad_swap:
	fput()

since that's how we (well, XFS anyway :)) tend to do it.

That's possible, but current error handling (the "bad_swap" section) is not
well organized, so we may hit some other lock issue or race problem ... OK,
I'll investigate and try to reorder the error handling code to be cleaner.

Thanks,
