Holding the iolock in shared mode, taken a page fault during the
read() call and blocked on the mmap_sem.

IOWs, you're doing read() IO into a mmap()d buffer, and there's a
concurrent munmap() of another region of the same file that is open
under a different file descriptor. ABBA deadlock, and it's been
there for about 10 years. The problem is the munmap() call calling
fput() with the mmap_sem() held.

Here's the latest discussion thread about solving it:

https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/19/635

Right now your only option for avoiding the deadlock is "don't do
that". Soon it might be "upgrade to 3.x", but don't hold your
breath...

Cheers,

Dave.
