Bah! I should have caught this faster. I kept thinking it had to be some
missed unlock of the sbi->fs_lock, but it ends up its just the
autofs4_lock.
Apparently the conversion from using the dcache_lock -> autofs4_lock
forgot that this function already grabs the autofs_lock for a small
moment, so we end up grabbing the lock, then a moment later grab it
again. Splat.
This patch should resolve it.
