btrfs: Fix a lockdep warning when running xfstest.
The following lockdep warning is triggered during xfstests: [ 1702.980872] ========================================================= [ 1702.981181] [ INFO: possible irq lock inversion dependency detected ] [ 1702.981482] 3.18.0-rc1 #27 Not tainted [ 1702.981781] --------------------------------------------------------- [ 1702.982095] kswapd0/77 just changed the state of lock: [ 1702.982415] (&delayed_node->mutex){+.+.-.}, at: [<ffffffffa03b0b51>] __btrfs_release_delayed_node+0x41/0x1f0 [btrfs] [ 1702.982794] but this lock took another, RECLAIM_FS-unsafe lock in the past: [ 1702.983160] (&fs_info->dev_replace.lock){+.+.+.} and interrupts could create inverse lock ordering between them. [ 1702.984675] other info that might help us debug this: [ 1702.985524] Chain exists of: &delayed_node->mutex --> &found->groups_sem --> &fs_info->dev_replace.lock [ 1702.986799] Possible interrupt unsafe locking scenario: [ 1702.987681] CPU0 CPU1 [ 1702.988137] ---- ---- [ 1702.988598] lock(&fs_info->dev_replace.lock); [ 1702.989069] local_irq_disable(); [ 1702.989534] lock(&delayed_node->mutex); [ 1702.990038] lock(&found->groups_sem); [ 1702.990494] <Interrupt> [ 1702.990938] lock(&delayed_node->mutex); [ 1702.991407] *** DEADLOCK *** It is because the btrfs_kobj_{add/rm}_device() will call memory allocation with GFP_KERNEL, which may flush fs page cache to free space, waiting for it self to do the commit, causing the deadlock. To solve the problem, move btrfs_kobj_{add/rm}_device() out of the dev_replace lock range, also involing split the btrfs_rm_dev_replace_srcdev() function into remove and free parts. Now only btrfs_rm_dev_replace_remove_srcdev() is called in dev_replace lock range, and kobj_{add/rm} and btrfs_rm_dev_replace_free_srcdev() are called out of the lock range.
