Another false positive. We have a transaction handle here, but
we've failed to reserve space for it so it's not an active
transaction yet. i.e. the filesystem is operating at ENOSPC.
On an ENOSPC error, we flush out dirty data to free up reserved
delalloc space, which obviously is obviously then racing with an
unlink of an inode in another thread and so drops the final
reference to the inode, and it goes down the eviction path that runs
transactions.
But there is no deadlock here - while we have a transaction handle
allocated at xfs_create() context, it is not yet active and holds no
reservation, so it is safe for eviction here to run new transactions
as there is no active transaction in progress.
Cheers,
Dave.
