      NTFS: Fix a mount time deadlock. · bfab36e8
      Anton Altaparmakov 提交于
      Big thanks go to Mathias Kolehmainen for reporting the bug, providing
      debug output and testing the patches I sent him to get it working.
      
      The fix was to stop calling ntfs_attr_set() at mount time as that causes
      balance_dirty_pages_ratelimited() to be called which on systems with
      little memory actually tries to go and balance the dirty pages which tries
      to take the s_umount semaphore but because we are still in fill_super()
      across which the VFS holds s_umount for writing this results in a
      deadlock.
      
      We now do the dirty work by hand by submitting individual buffers.  This
      has the annoying "feature" that mounting can take a few seconds if the
      journal is large as we have clear it all.  One day someone should improve
      on this by deferring the journal clearing to a helper kernel thread so it
      can be done in the background but I don't have time for this at the moment
      and the current solution works fine so I am leaving it like this for now.
