Andreas Gruenbacher 3d36e57ff7 gfs2: gfs2_create_inode rework 
When gfs2_lookup_by_inum() calls gfs2_inode_lookup() for an uncached
inode, gfs2_inode_lookup() will place a new tentative inode into the
inode cache before verifying that there is a valid inode at the given
address.  This can race with gfs2_create_inode() which doesn't check for
duplicates inodes.  gfs2_create_inode() will try to assign the new inode
to the corresponding inode glock, and glock_set_object() will complain
that the glock is still in use by gfs2_inode_lookup's tentative inode.

We noticed this bug after adding commit 486408d690 ("gfs2: Cancel
remote delete work asynchronously") which allowed delete_work_func() to
race with gfs2_create_inode(), but the same race exists for
open-by-handle.

Fix that by switching from insert_inode_hash() to
insert_inode_locked4(), which does check for duplicate inodes.  We know
we've just managed to to allocate the new inode, so an inode tentatively
created by gfs2_inode_lookup() will eventually go away and
insert_inode_locked4() will always succeed.

In addition, don't flush the inode glock work anymore (this can now only
make things worse) and clean up glock_{set,clear}_object for the inode
glock somewhat.

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.
