3.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: KOSAKI Motohiro <kosaki.motohiro@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit a85d9df1ea1d23682a0ed1e100e6965006595d06 upstream.
During aio stress test, we observed the following lockdep warning. This
mean AIO+numa_balancing is currently deadlockable.
The problem is, aio_migratepage disable interrupt, but
__set_page_dirty_nobuffers unintentionally enable it again.
Generally, all helper function should use spin_lock_irqsave() instead of
spin_lock_irq() because they don't know caller at all.
other info that might help us debug this:
Possible unsafe locking scenario:

lock(&(&ctx->completion_lock)->rlock);

lock(&(&ctx->completion_lock)->rlock);
