Su Yue 2acc59dd88 bcachefs: grab s_umount only if snapshotting
When I was testing mongodb over bcachefs with compression,
there is a lockdep warning when snapshotting mongodb data volume.

$ cat test.sh
prog=bcachefs

$prog subvolume create /mnt/data
$prog subvolume create /mnt/data/snapshots

while true;do
    $prog subvolume snapshot /mnt/data /mnt/data/snapshots/$(date +%s)
    sleep 1s
done

$ cat /etc/mongodb.conf
systemLog:
  destination: file
  logAppend: true
  path: /mnt/data/mongod.log

storage:
  dbPath: /mnt/data/

======================================================

In __bch2_ioctl_subvolume_create(), we grab s_umount unconditionally
and unlock it at the end of the function. There is a comment
"why do we need this lock?" about the lock coming from
commit 42d237320e ("bcachefs: Snapshot creation, deletion")
The reason is that __bch2_ioctl_subvolume_create() calls
sync_inodes_sb() which enforce locked s_umount to writeback all dirty
nodes before doing snapshot works.

Fix it by read locking s_umount for snapshotting only and unlocking
s_umount after sync_inodes_sb().

README

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.
