5.15-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Andreas Gruenbacher <agruenba@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 074d7306a4fe22fcac0b53f699f92757ab1cee99 ] Commit 0abd1557e21c added rcu_dereference() for dereferencing ip->i_gl in gfs2_permission. This now causes lockdep to complain when gfs2_permission is called in non-RCU context: WARNING: suspicious RCU usage in gfs2_permission Switch to rcu_dereference_check() and check for the MAY_NOT_BLOCK flag to shut up lockdep when we know that dereferencing ip->i_gl is safe.
