Subject[PATCH 4.9 027/310] CIFS: silence lockdep splat in cifs_relock_file()
Date
4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Rabin Vincent <rabinv@axis.com>


[ Upstream commit 560d388950ceda5e7c7cdef7f3d9a8ff297bbf9d ]

cifs_relock_file() can perform a down_write() on the inode's lock_sem even
though it was already performed in cifs_strict_readv(). Lockdep complains
about this. AFAICS, there is no problem here, and lockdep just needs to be
told that this nesting is OK.

=============================================
[ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ]
4.11.0+ #20 Not tainted
---------------------------------------------
cat/701 is trying to acquire lock:
(&cifsi->lock_sem){++++.+}, at: cifs_reopen_file+0x7a7/0xc00

but task is already holding lock:
(&cifsi->lock_sem){++++.+}, at: cifs_strict_readv+0x177/0x310

other info that might help us debug this:
Possible unsafe locking scenario:

CPU0
----
lock(&cifsi->lock_sem);
lock(&cifsi->lock_sem);

*** DEADLOCK ***

May be due to missing lock nesting notation

1 lock held by cat/701:
#0: (&cifsi->lock_sem){++++.+}, at: cifs_strict_readv+0x177/0x310
