[PATCH 4/4] ceph: fix buffer free while holding i_ceph_lock in fill_inode()

From: Luis Henriques
Date: Fri Jul 19 2019 - 10:32:34 EST


Calling ceph_buffer_put() in fill_inode() may result in freeing the
i_xattrs.blob buffer while holding the i_ceph_lock. This can be fixed by
postponing the call until later, when the lock is released.

The following backtrace was triggered by fstests generic/070.

BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at mm/vmalloc.c:2283
