[PATCH 4.9 37/69] libnvdimm: fix reconfig_mutex, mmap_sem, and jbd2_handle lockdep splat
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Wed Apr 19 2017 - 10:53:42 EST
4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@xxxxxxxxx>
commit 0beb2012a1722633515c8aaa263c73449636c893 upstream.
Holding the reconfig_mutex over a potential userspace fault sets up a
lockdep dependency chain between filesystem-DAX and the libnvdimm ioctl
path. Move the user access outside of the lock.
[ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ]
4.11.0-rc3+ #13 Tainted: G W O

fallocate/16656 is trying to acquire lock:

but task is already holding lock:
