rbd: don't hold lock_rwsem while running_list is being drained
commit ed9eb710 upstream. Currently rbd_quiesce_lock() holds lock_rwsem for read while blocking on releasing_wait completion. On the I/O completion side, each image request also needs to take lock_rwsem for read. Because rw_semaphore implementation doesn't allow new readers after a writer has indicated interest in the lock, this can result in a deadlock if something that needs to take lock_rwsem for write gets involved. For example: 1. watch error occurs 2. rbd_watch_errcb() takes lock_rwsem for write, clears owner_cid and releases lock_rwsem 3. after reestablishing the watch, rbd_reregister_watch() takes lock_rwsem for write and calls rbd_reacquire_lock() 4. rbd_quiesce_lock() downgrades lock_rwsem to for read and blocks on releasing_wait until running_list becomes empty 5. another watch error occurs 6. rbd_watch_errcb() blocks trying to take lock_rwsem for write 7. no in-flight image request can complete and delete itself from running_list because lock_rwsem won't be granted anymore A similar scenario can occur with "lock has been acquired" and "lock has been released" notification handers which also take lock_rwsem for write to update owner_cid. We don't actually get anything useful from sitting on lock_rwsem in rbd_quiesce_lock() -- owner_cid updates certainly don't need to be synchronized with. In fact the whole owner_cid tracking logic could probably be removed from the kernel client because we don't support proxied maintenance operations.
