[PATCH] f2fs: Prevent s_writer rw_sem count mismatch in f2fs_evict_inode

From: Yeongjin Gil
Date: Fri Mar 22 2024 - 00:17:05 EST


If f2fs_evict_inode is called between freeze_super and thaw_super, the
s_writer rwsem count may become negative, resulting in hang.

CPU1 CPU2

f2fs_resize_fs() f2fs_evict_inode()
f2fs_freeze
set SBI_IS_FREEZING
skip sb_start_intwrite
f2fs_unfreeze
clear SBI_IS_FREEZING
sb_end_intwrite

To solve this problem, the call to sb_end_write is determined by whether
sb_start_intwrite is called, rather than the current freezing status.
