Otherwise, if ext4_inode_attach_jinode() fails, a hung task will
happen because filemap_invalidate_unlock() isn't called to unlock
mapping->invalidate_lock. Like this:

First off, thank you for catching this. :)
Thanks for your review!

This looks reasonable to me, but I notice that the immediate previous
error check looks like this:
...
rc = ext4_break_layouts(inode);
if (rc) {
filemap_invalidate_unlock(inode->i_mapping);
goto err_out;
}
...
... and then the following after the broken logic uses out_mmap_sem.
Could we be a little more consistent here one way or the other? The
change looks functionally correct to me either way:

Indeed, this is confusing.
The reason is that we don't want to call ext4_std_error() when
ext4_break_layouts() fails. So we first store the error in 'rc', and then
pass the error to 'error' at the end. (See b9c1c26739ec
("ext4: gracefully handle ext4_break_layouts() failure during truncate"))
However, because 'error' is not assigned, the goto out_mmap_sem label will
execute some code that shouldn't be executed. Therefore, in the error
handling of ext4_break_layouts(), we unlock and then goto err_out label.
While under normal error conditions, 'error' is assigned, and it should
enter the out_mmap_sem label. Therefore, in the error handling of
ext4_inode_attach_jinode(), we directly goto out_mmap_sem label.
The handling of 'rc' in this function is indeed very subtle.
