Subject: [PATCH] ext4: Fix circular locking dependency with migrate and rm.

We now take inode->i_mutex lock to prevent any update of the inode i_data
field. Before we switch the inode format we take i_data_sem to prevent
parallel read.

=======================================================
[ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ]
2.6.24-rc8 #6
-------------------------------------------------------
rm/2401 is trying to acquire lock:
 (&ei->i_data_sem){----}, at: [<c01dca58>] ext4_get_blocks_wrap+0x21/0x108

but task is already holding lock:
 (jbd2_handle){--..}, at: [<c01fc4a7>] jbd2_journal_start+0xd2/0xff

which lock already depends on the new lock.


the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:

-> #1 (jbd2_handle){--..}:

       [<c0143cbf>] lock_acquire+0x7a/0x94

       [<c0104f8a>] sysenter_past_esp+0x5f/0xa5
       [<ffffffff>] 0xffffffff

other info that might help us debug this:

3 locks held by rm/2401:
 #0:  (&type->i_mutex_dir_key#5/1){--..}, at: [<c0175eca>] do_unlinkat+0x5e/0x12c
