When running fstests generic/068, sometimes we got below deadlock:

>From this warning, freeze_super() already holds SB_FREEZE_FS, but
btrfs_freeze() will call btrfs_commit_transaction() again, if
btrfs_commit_transaction() finds that it has delayed iputs to handle,
it'll start_transaction(), which will try to get SB_FREEZE_FS lock
again, then deadlock occurs.
The root cause is that in btrfs, sync_filesystem(sb) does not make
sure all metadata is updated. There still maybe some codes adding
delayed iputs, see below sample race window:
CPU1 | CPU2
|-> freeze_super() |
|-> sync_filesystem(sb); |
| |-> cleaner_kthread()
| | |-> btrfs_delete_unused_bgs()
| | |-> btrfs_remove_chunk()
| | |-> btrfs_remove_block_group()
| | |-> btrfs_add_delayed_iput()
| |
|-> sb->s_writers.frozen = SB_FREEZE_FS; |
|-> sb_wait_write(sb, SB_FREEZE_FS); |
| acquire SB_FREEZE_FS lock. |
| |
|-> btrfs_freeze() |
|-> btrfs_commit_transaction() |
|-> btrfs_run_delayed_iputs() |
| will handle delayed iputs, |
| that means start_transaction() |
| will be called, which will try |
| to get SB_FREEZE_FS lock. |
To fix this issue, introduce a "int fs_frozen" to record internally whether
fs has been frozen. If fs has been frozen, we can not handle delayed iputs.
