iomap complete routine can deadlock with btrfs_fallocate because of the
call to generic_write_sync().
P0 P1
inode_lock() fallocate(FALLOC_FL_ZERO_RANGE)
__iomap_dio_rw() inode_lock()
<block>
<submits IO>
<completes IO>
inode_unlock()
<gets inode_lock()>
inode_dio_wait()
iomap_dio_complete()
generic_write_sync()
btrfs_file_fsync()
inode_lock()
<deadlock>
inode_dio_end() is used to notify the end of DIO data in order
to synchronize with truncate. Call inode_dio_end() before calling
generic_write_sync(), so filesystems can lock i_rwsem during a sync.
This matches the way it is done in fs/direct-io.c:dio_complete().

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
