fsnotify: fix wrong lockdep annotations
stable inclusion from stable-v5.10.121 commit f929416d5c9c9908659cde74a3e29e84c8ffe418 category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I5L6CQ Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=f929416d5c9c9908659cde74a3e29e84c8ffe418 -------------------------------- [ Upstream commit 623af4f5 ] Commit 6960b0d9 ("fsnotify: change locking order") changed some of the mark_mutex locks in direct reclaim path to use: mutex_lock_nested(&group->mark_mutex, SINGLE_DEPTH_NESTING); This change is explained: "...It uses nested locking to avoid deadlock in case we do the final iput() on an inode which still holds marks and thus would take the mutex again when calling fsnotify_inode_delete() in destroy_inode()." The problem is that the mutex_lock_nested() is not a nested lock at all. In fact, it has the opposite effect of preventing lockdep from warning about a very possible deadlock. Due to these wrong annotations, a deadlock that was introduced with nfsd filecache in kernel v5.4 went unnoticed in v5.4.y for over two years until it was reported recently by Khazhismel Kumykov, only to find out that the deadlock was already fixed in kernel v5.5. Fix the wrong lockdep annotations.
