Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] ocfs2: fix deadlock issue when taking inode lock at vfs entry points

Commit 743b5f1434f5 ("ocfs2: take inode lock in ocfs2_iop_set/get_acl()")
results in a deadlock, as the author "Tariq Saeed" realized shortly
after the patch was merged. The discussion happened here
(https://oss.oracle.com/pipermail/ocfs2-devel/2015-September/011085.html).

The reason why taking cluster inode lock at vfs entry points opens up
a self deadlock window, is explained in the previous patch of this
series.

So far, we have seen two different code paths that have this issue.
1. do_sys_open
     may_open
      inode_permission
       ocfs2_permission
        ocfs2_inode_lock() <=== take PR
         generic_permission
          get_acl
           ocfs2_iop_get_acl
            ocfs2_inode_lock() <=== take PR
2. fchmod|fchmodat
    chmod_common
     notify_change
      ocfs2_setattr <=== take EX
       posix_acl_chmod
        get_acl
         ocfs2_iop_get_acl <=== take PR
        ocfs2_iop_set_acl <=== take EX

Fixes them by adding the tracking logic (in the previous patch) for
these funcs above, ocfs2_permission(), ocfs2_iop_[set|get]_acl(),
ocfs2_setattr().

Changes since v1:
1. Let ocfs2_is_locked_by_me() just return true/false to indicate if the
process gets the cluster lock - suggested by: Joseph Qi <jiangqi903@...il.com>
and Junxiao Bi <junxiao.bi@...cle.com>.

2. Change "struct ocfs2_holder" to a more meaningful name "ocfs2_lock_holder",
suggested by: Junxiao Bi <junxiao.bi@...cle.com>.

3. Add debugging output at ocfs2_setattr() and ocfs2_permission() to
catch exceptional cases, suggested by: Junxiao Bi <junxiao.bi@...cle.com>.
