Right now we use the 'readlock' both for protecting some of the af_unix IO path and for making the bind be single-threaded. The two are independent, but using the same lock makes for a nasty deadlock due to ordering with regards to filesystem locking. The bind locking would want to nest outside the VSF pathname locking, but the IO locking wants to nest inside some of those same locks. We tried to fix this earlier with commit c845acb3 ("af_unix: Fix splice-bind deadlock") which moved the readlock inside the vfs locks, but that caused problems with overlayfs that will then call back into filesystem routines that take the lock in the wrong order anyway. Splitting the locks means that we can go back to having the bind lock be the outermost lock, and we don't have any deadlocks with lock ordering.
