Xiubo Li 825978fd6a ceph: fix possible deadlock when holding Fwb to get inline_data
1, mount with wsync.
2, create a file with O_RDWR, and the request was sent to mds.0:

   ceph_atomic_open()-->
     ceph_mdsc_do_request(openc)
     finish_open(file, dentry, ceph_open)-->
       ceph_open()-->
         ceph_init_file()-->
           ceph_init_file_info()-->
             ceph_uninline_data()-->
             {
               ...
               if (inline_version == 1 || /* initial version, no data */
                   inline_version == CEPH_INLINE_NONE)
                     goto out_unlock;
               ...
             }

The inline_version will be 1, which is the initial version for the
new create file. And here the ci->i_inline_version will keep with 1,
it's buggy.

3, buffer write to the file immediately:

   ceph_write_iter()-->
     ceph_get_caps(file, need=Fw, want=Fb, ...);
     generic_perform_write()-->
       a_ops->write_begin()-->
         ceph_write_begin()-->
           netfs_write_begin()-->
             netfs_begin_read()-->
               netfs_rreq_submit_slice()-->
                 netfs_read_from_server()-->
                   rreq->netfs_ops->issue_read()-->
                     ceph_netfs_issue_read()-->
                     {
                       ...
                       if (ci->i_inline_version != CEPH_INLINE_NONE &&
                           ceph_netfs_issue_op_inline(subreq))
                         return;
                       ...
                     }
     ceph_put_cap_refs(ci, Fwb);

The ceph_netfs_issue_op_inline() will send a getattr(Fsr) request to
mds.1.

4, then the mds.1 will request the rd lock for CInode::filelock from
the auth mds.0, the mds.0 will do the CInode::filelock state transation
from excl --> sync, but it need to revoke the Fxwb caps back from the
clients.

While the kernel client has aleady held the Fwb caps and waiting for
the getattr(Fsr).

It's deadlock!

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.
