Yan, Zheng 3e1d0452ed ceph: avoid iput_final() while holding mutex or in dispatch thread
iput_final() may wait for reahahead pages. The wait can cause deadlock.
For example:

  Workqueue: ceph-msgr ceph_con_workfn [libceph]
    Call Trace:
     schedule+0x36/0x80
     io_schedule+0x16/0x40

     worker_thread+0x4b/0x460
     kthread+0x105/0x140
     ret_from_fork+0x22/0x40

  Workqueue: ceph-msgr ceph_con_workfn [libceph]
    Call Trace:
     __schedule+0x3d6/0x8b0
     schedule+0x36/0x80
     schedule_preempt_disabled+0xe/0x10
     mutex_lock+0x2f/0x40
     ceph_check_caps+0x505/0xa80 [ceph]
     ceph_put_wrbuffer_cap_refs+0x1e5/0x2c0 [ceph]
     writepages_finish+0x2d3/0x410 [ceph]
     __complete_request+0x26/0x60 [libceph]
     handle_reply+0x6c8/0xa10 [libceph]
     dispatch+0x29a/0xbb0 [libceph]
     ceph_con_workfn+0x95b/0x1560 [libceph]
     process_one_work+0x14d/0x410
     worker_thread+0x4b/0x460
     kthread+0x105/0x140
     ret_from_fork+0x22/0x40

In above example, truncate_inode_pages_range() waits for readahead pages
while holding s_mutex. ceph_check_caps() waits for s_mutex and blocks
OSD dispatch thread. Later OSD replies (for readahead) can't be handled.

ceph_check_caps() also may lock snap_rwsem for read. So similar deadlock
can happen if iput_final() is called while holding snap_rwsem.

In general, it's not good to call iput_final() inside MDS/OSD dispatch
threads or while holding any mutex.

The fix is introducing ceph_async_iput(), which calls iput_final() in
workqueue.

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.
