From: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@xxxxxxxxxx> This patch has been added to the 4.1 stable tree. If you have any objections, please let us know. =============== [ Upstream commit 8fba54aebbdf1f999738121922e74bf796ad60ee ] When reading from a loop device backed by a fuse file it deadlocks on lock_page(). This is because the page is already locked by the read() operation done on the loop device. In this case we don't want to either lock the page or dirty it. So do what fs/direct-io.c does: only dirty the page for ITER_IOVEC vectors.
