No deadlock. Problem is the shmem code, which is doing inode
instantiation under the mmap_sem, thereby inverting the entire vfs
locking order w.r.t. to the mmap_sem....

i.e. this one:

vm_mmap_pgoff() takes the mmap_sem.

It's been reported so many times I need a FAQ entry for it. problem
is, i can't fix it easily because it's a shmem bug...
