Something holds the ni_lock, so this process has blocked on it, and
this all happens inside mmap():

so this code holds the mmapo_lock for writing, which is why all those
other processes are hung on getting it for reading for page faults
etc.
End result: ignore all those page fault processes, this mmap_lock ->
ni_lock explains them all, and they aren't the cause.

.. and this thread is waiting on the page lock (well, folio, same
thing), and the IO apparently isn't completing.
And that seems to be because this one is busy reading the page, and
blocked on that same ni_lock:

It's showing 394/5214 as "holding" the lock, even though it's just
waiting for it - it's the one doing the readpage.
I think it's just because lockdep ends up adding the lock to the queue
before it actually gets the lock, so anybody pending will be shown as
"holding" it.
And the 5221 one:

is that mmap() one, which is waiting for the ni_lock too (while
holding the mmap_sem, which is why the page faulters are all blocked).
But 5222 is is interesting, it is the truncate one, and it's waiting
for the page lock, and it really does seem to hold the ni_lock:

So I think that we have:
- ntfs_truncate() gets the ni_lock (fs/ntfs3/file.c:393)
- it then - while holding that lock - calls (on line 395):
truncate_setsize ->
truncate_pagecache ->
truncate_inode_pages ->
truncate_inode_pages_range ->
folio_lock
but that deadlocks on another process that wants to read that page,
and that needs ni_lock to do so.
So yes, it does look like a ntfs3 deadlock involving ni_lock.
Anyway, the above is just me trying to make sense of the call traces
and trying to cut out all the noise. I might have mis-read something.
