kaixuxia bc56ad8c74 xfs: Fix deadlock between AGI and AGF with RENAME_WHITEOUT
When performing rename operation with RENAME_WHITEOUT flag, we will
hold AGF lock to allocate or free extents in manipulating the dirents
firstly, and then doing the xfs_iunlink_remove() call last to hold
AGI lock to modify the tmpfile info, so we the lock order AGI->AGF.

The big problem here is that we have an ordering constraint on AGF
and AGI locking - inode allocation locks the AGI, then can allocate
a new extent for new inodes, locking the AGF after the AGI. Hence
the ordering that is imposed by other parts of the code is AGI before
AGF. So we get an ABBA deadlock between the AGI and AGF here.

In this patch we move the xfs_iunlink_remove() call to
before acquiring the AGF lock to preserve correct AGI/AGF locking
order.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
