Subject: [PATCH] Uprobes: Fix deadlock between delayed_uprobe_lock and fs_reclaim

There can be a deadlock between delayed_uprobe_lock and
fs_reclaim like:

   CPU0                         CPU1
   ----                         ----
   lock(fs_reclaim);
                                lock(delayed_uprobe_lock);
                                lock(fs_reclaim);
   lock(delayed_uprobe_lock);

Here CPU0 is a file system code path which results in
mmput()->__mmput()->uprobe_clear_state() with fs_reclaim
locked. And, CPU1 is a uprobe event creation path.

This was reported by syzbot at [1]. Though, the reproducer
is nither available by syzbot nor I can reproduce it locally.
