    udf: Fix deadlock between writeback and udf_setsize() · fa67ac18
    Jan Kara authored
    commit f2e95355 upstream.
    
    udf_setsize() called truncate_setsize() with i_data_sem held. Thus
    truncate_pagecache() called from truncate_setsize() could lock a page
    under i_data_sem which can deadlock as page lock ranks below
    i_data_sem - e. g. writeback can hold page lock and try to acquire
    i_data_sem to map a block.
    
    Fix the problem by moving truncate_setsize() calls from under
    i_data_sem. It is safe for us to change i_size without holding
    i_data_sem as all the places that depend on i_size being stable already
    hold inode_lock.
