gfs2: Fix mmap + page fault deadlocks for direct I/O
commit
b01b2d72da25c000aeb124bc78daf3fb998be2b6 upstream
Also disable page faults during direct I/O requests and implement a
similar kind of retry logic as in the buffered I/O case.
The retry logic in the direct I/O case differs from the buffered I/O
case in the following way: direct I/O doesn't provide the kinds of
consistency guarantees between concurrent reads and writes that buffered
I/O provides, so once we lose the inode glock while faulting in user
pages, we always resume the operation. We never need to return a
partial read or write.
This locking problem was originally reported by Jan Kara. Linus came up
with the idea of disabling page faults. Many thanks to Al Viro and
Matthew Wilcox for their feedback.
