Readdir does dir_emit while under the btree lock. dir_emit can trigger
the page fault which means we can deadlock. Fix this by allocating a
buffer on opening a directory and copying the readdir into this buffer
and doing dir_emit from outside of the tree lock.
Thread A
readdir <holding tree lock>
dir_emit
<page fault>
down_read(mmap_sem)
Thread B
mmap write
down_write(mmap_sem)
page_mkwrite
wait_ordered_extents
Process C
finish_ordered_extent
insert_reserved_file_extent
try to lock leaf <hang>

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
