[PATCH 3.18 012/121] CIFS: silence lockdep splat in cifs_relock_file()

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

3.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Rabin Vincent <rabinv@xxxxxxxx>


[ Upstream commit 560d388950ceda5e7c7cdef7f3d9a8ff297bbf9d ]

cifs_relock_file() can perform a down_write() on the inode's lock_sem even
though it was already performed in cifs_strict_readv().  Lockdep complains
about this.  AFAICS, there is no problem here, and lockdep just needs to be
told that this nesting is OK.

 =============================================
 [ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ]
 4.11.0+ #20 Not tainted
 ---------------------------------------------
 cat/701 is trying to acquire lock:
  (&cifsi->lock_sem){++++.+}, at: cifs_reopen_file+0x7a7/0xc00

 but task is already holding lock:
  (&cifsi->lock_sem){++++.+}, at: cifs_strict_readv+0x177/0x310

 other info that might help us debug this:
  Possible unsafe locking scenario:

        CPU0
        ----
   lock(&cifsi->lock_sem);
   lock(&cifsi->lock_sem);

  *** DEADLOCK ***

  May be due to missing lock nesting notation

 1 lock held by cat/701:
  #0:  (&cifsi->lock_sem){++++.+}, at: cifs_strict_readv+0x177/0x310
