[PATCH 4.14 034/124] ovl: fix recursive oi->lock in ovl_link()

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

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

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

From: Amir Goldstein <amir73il@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 6cd078702f2f33cb6b19a682de3e9184112f1a46 upstream.

linking a non-copied-up file into a non-copied-up parent results in a
nested call to mutex_lock_interruptible(&oi->lock). Fix this by copying up
target parent before ovl_nlink_start(), same as done in ovl_rename().

~/unionmount-testsuite$ ./run --ov -s
~/unionmount-testsuite$ ln /mnt/a/foo100 /mnt/a/dir100/

 WARNING: possible recursive locking detected
 --------------------------------------------
 ln/1545 is trying to acquire lock:
 00000000bcce7c4c (&ovl_i_lock_key[depth]){+.+.}, at:
     ovl_copy_up_start+0x28/0x7d
 but task is already holding lock:
 0000000026d73d5b (&ovl_i_lock_key[depth]){+.+.}, at:
     ovl_nlink_start+0x3c/0xc1

[SzM: this seems to be a false positive, but doing the copy-up first is
harmless and removes the lockdep splat]
