Andreas Gruenbacher dd0ecf5441 gfs2: Fix deadlock between gfs2_{create_inode,inode_lookup} and delete_work_func
In gfs2_create_inode and gfs2_inode_lookup, make sure to cancel any pending
delete work before taking the inode glock.  Otherwise, gfs2_cancel_delete_work
may block waiting for delete_work_func to complete, and delete_work_func may
block trying to acquire the inode glock in gfs2_inode_lookup.

Reported-by: Alexander Aring <aahringo@redhat.com>
Fixes: a0e3cc65fa ("gfs2: Turn gl_delete into a delayed work")

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
