NFS: swap-out must always use STABLE writes.
stable inclusion from stable-v5.10.111 commit b3882e78aa0a924fa6c2c09fe74aaaa2299a34ad category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I5GL1Z Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=b3882e78aa0a924fa6c2c09fe74aaaa2299a34ad -------------------------------- [ Upstream commit c265de25 ] The commit handling code is not safe against memory-pressure deadlocks when writing to swap. In particular, nfs_commitdata_alloc() blocks indefinitely waiting for memory, and this can consume all available workqueue threads. swap-out most likely uses STABLE writes anyway as COND_STABLE indicates that a stable write should be used if the write fits in a single request, and it normally does. However if we ever swap with a small wsize, or gather unusually large numbers of pages for a single write, this might change. For safety, make it explicit in the code that direct writes used for swap must always use FLUSH_STABLE.
