[PATCH for v4.9 LTS 31/86] Btrfs: Fix deadlock between direct IO and fast fsync

["Levin, Alexander (Sasha Levin)" <alexander.levin@verizon.com>]

From: Chandan Rajendra <chandan@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

[ Upstream commit 97dcdea076ecef41ea4aaa23d4397c2f622e4265 ]

The following deadlock is seen when executing generic/113 test,

 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In the above description, Btrfs direct I/O code path has not yet started
submitting bios for file range covered by the initial ordered
extent. Meanwhile, The fast fsync task obtains the write semaphore and
waits for I/O on the ordered extent to get completed. However, the
Direct I/O task is now blocked on obtaining the read semaphore.

To resolve the deadlock, this commit modifies the Direct I/O code path
to obtain the read semaphore before invoking
__blockdev_direct_IO(). The semaphore is then given up after
__blockdev_direct_IO() returns. This allows the Direct I/O code to
complete I/O on all the ordered extents it creates.
