btrfs: exclude mmap from happening during all fallocate operations
There's a small window where a deadlock can happen between fallocate and mmap. This is described in detail by Filipe: """ When doing a fallocate operation we lock the inode, flush delalloc within the target range, wait for any ordered extents to complete and then lock the file range. Before we lock the range and after we flush delalloc, there is a time window where another task can come in and do a memory mapped write for a page within the fallocate range. This means that after fallocate locks the range, there can be a dirty page in the range. More often than not, this does not cause any problem. The exception is when we are low on available metadata space, because an fallocate operation needs to start a transaction while holding the file range locked, either through btrfs_prealloc_file_range() or through the call to btrfs_fallocate_update_isize(). If that's the case, we can end up in a deadlock. The following list of steps explains how that happens: 1) A fallocate operation starts, locks the inode, flushes delalloc in the range and waits for ordered extents in the range to complete; 2) Before the fallocate task locks the file range, another task does a memory mapped write for a page in the fallocate target range. This is possible since memory mapped writes do not (and can not) lock the inode; 3) The fallocate task locks the file range. At this point there is one dirty page in the range (due to the memory mapped write); 4) When the fallocate task attempts to start a transaction, it blocks when attempting to reserve metadata space, since we are low on available metadata space. Before blocking (wait on its reservation ticket), it starts the async reclaim task (if not running already); 5) The async reclaim task is not able to release space through any other means, so it decides to flush delalloc for inodes with dirty pages. It finds that the inode used in the fallocate operation has a dirty page and therefore queues a job (fs_info->flush_workers workqueue) to flush delalloc for that inode and waits on that job to complete; 6) The flush job blocks when attempting to lock the file range because it is currently locked by the fallocate task; 7) The fallocate task keeps waiting for its metadata reservation, waiting for a wakeup on its reservation ticket. The async reclaim task is waiting on the flush job, which in turn is waiting for locking the file range that is currently locked by the fallocate task. So unless some other task is able to release enough metadata space, for example an ordered extent for some other inode completes, we end up in a deadlock between all these tasks. When this happens stack traces like the following show up in dmesg/syslog: INFO: task kworker/u16:11:1810830 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
