Patch below (against the xfs master/linux-next branch) should fix the
regression. I've just started QA on it. Can you please check that
it works for you, Alexander?

XFS: Can't lock inodes in radix tree preload region

When we are inside a radix tree preload region, we cannot
sleep. Recently we moved the inode locking inside the
preload region for the inode radix tree. Fix that,
and fix a missed unlock in another error path in the
same code at the same time.
