>From your trace it looks as if the problem is that the nfs_wb_page() is
triggering a dentry release, which deadlocks with in
truncate_inode_pages() because the _caller_ of nfs_release_page() holds
a page lock.
As far as I can see, your iput() call above can deadlock in exactly the
same way.
Note that shrink_page_list() is the only function that does this sort of
thing without holding a reference to the inode.
