ext4: Fix deadlock in ext4_write_begin() and ext4_da_write_begin()
Functions ext4_write_begin() and ext4_da_write_begin() call grab_cache_page_write_begin() without AOP_FLAG_NOFS. Thus it can happen that page reclaim is triggered in that function and it recurses back into the filesystem (or some other filesystem). But this can lead to various problems as a transaction is already started at that point. Add the necessary flag. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11688 Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
