mainlining shenanigans
ca5e4ea0be
There is a hung_task issue with running generic/068 on an SMR
device. The hang occurs while a process is trying to thaw the
filesystem. The process is trying to take sb->s_umount to thaw the
FS. The lock is held by fsstress, which calls btrfs_sync_fs() and is
waiting for an ordered extent to finish. However, as the FS is frozen,
the ordered extents never finish.
Having an ordered extent while the FS is frozen is the root cause of
the hang. The ordered extent is initiated from btrfs_relocate_chunk()
which is called from btrfs_reclaim_bgs_work().
This commit adds sb_*_write() around btrfs_relocate_chunk() call
site. For the usual "btrfs balance" command, we already call it with
mnt_want_file() in btrfs_ioctl_balance().

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.
