Parent dir is locked by user_path_locked_at() before validating the required dentry. It should be unlocked if we can not perform the deletion. This fixes the problem: $ bcachefs subvolume delete not-exist-entry BCH_IOCTL_SUBVOLUME_DESTROY ioctl error: No such file or directory $ bcachefs subvolume delete not-exist-entry the second will stuck because the parent dir is locked in the previous deletion.
