[PATCH] ext4: fix i_data_sem unlock order in ext4_ind_migrate()

From: Mikhail Ukhin
Date: Thu Apr 04 2024 - 05:56:22 EST


Fuzzing reports a possible deadlock in jbd2_log_wait_commit.

The problem occurs in ext4_ind_migrate due to an incorrect order of
unlocking of the journal and write semaphores - the order of unlocking
must be the reverse of the order of locking.

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with syzkaller.
