4.19-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Trond Myklebust <trondmy@xxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 22876f540bdf19af9e4fca893ce02ba7ee65ebcc ]
The NFS read code can trigger writeback while holding the page lock.
If an error then triggers a call to nfs_write_error_remove_page(),
we can deadlock.
