From: Dave Chinner <dchinner@xxxxxxxxxx> Lock ordering for the new mmap lock needs to be: mmap_sem sb_start_pagefault i_mmap_lock page lock <fault processsing> Right now xfs_vm_page_mkwrite gets this the wrong way around, While technically it cannot deadlock due to the current freeze ordering, it's still a landmine that might explode if we change anything in future. Hence we need to nest the locks correctly.
