[ 5.272359] *** DEADLOCK ***
[ 5.272359]
[ 5.272360] 2 locks held by umount/413:
[ 5.272364] #0: (&type->s_umount_key#19){+.+...}, at: [<ffffffff811a1ff6>] deactivate_super+0x46/0x70
[ 5.272368] #1: (&pool->lock/1){+.+...}, at: [<ffffffff8106d803>] put_pwq_unlocked+0x23/0x40
Was caused by put_pwq_unlocked() which grabs the pool->lock and then calls put_pwq()
which does a schedule_work() which will grab the local_lock(pendingb_lock) and
then later grab another pool->lock. There's a comment in put_pwq() about how the
second pool->lock has a subclass of 1 to get around lockdep complaining, but the
addition of the local_lock() to replace the local_irq_save() in -rt is a real
deadlock scenario.
As local_locks() are recrusive, by grabing the local_lock() before the pool->lock
in put_pwd_unlocked() we keep the correct locking order.
As this is only needed for -rt, a helper function is added called pool_lock_irq()
that grabs the local lock before grabing the pool->lock when PREEMPT_RT_FULL is
defined, and just grabs the pool->lock otherwise.
