4.9.61-rt52-rc2 stable review patch.
If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
i_dir_seq is an opencoded seqcounter. Based on the code it looks like we
could have two writers in parallel despite the fact that the d_lock is
held. The problem is that during the write process on RT the preemption
is still enabled and if this process is interrupted by a reader with RT
priority then we lock up.
To avoid that lock up I am disabling the preemption during the update.
The rename of i_dir_seq is here to ensure to catch new write sides in
future.
