Eric Ren b891fa5024 ocfs2: fix deadlock issue when taking inode lock at vfs entry points 
Commit 743b5f1434 ("ocfs2: take inode lock in ocfs2_iop_set/get_acl()")
results in a deadlock, as the author "Tariq Saeed" realized shortly
after the patch was merged.  The discussion happened here

  https://oss.oracle.com/pipermail/ocfs2-devel/2015-September/011085.html

The reason why taking cluster inode lock at vfs entry points opens up a
self deadlock window, is explained in the previous patch of this series.

So far, we have seen two different code paths that have this issue.

1. do_sys_open
     may_open
      inode_permission
       ocfs2_permission
        ocfs2_inode_lock() <=== take PR
         generic_permission
          get_acl
           ocfs2_iop_get_acl
            ocfs2_inode_lock() <=== take PR

2. fchmod|fchmodat
    chmod_common
     notify_change
      ocfs2_setattr <=== take EX
       posix_acl_chmod
        get_acl
         ocfs2_iop_get_acl <=== take PR
        ocfs2_iop_set_acl <=== take EX

Fixes them by adding the tracking logic (in the previous patch) for these
funcs above, ocfs2_permission(), ocfs2_iop_[set|get]_acl(),
ocfs2_setattr().

README 

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
