btrfs: fix lockdep splat and potential deadlock after failure running…
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history 
… delayed items

When running delayed items we are holding a delayed node's mutex and then
we will attempt to modify a subvolume btree to insert/update/delete the
delayed items. However if have an error during the insertions for example,
btrfs_insert_delayed_items() may return with a path that has locked extent
buffers (a leaf at the very least), and then we attempt to release the
delayed node at __btrfs_run_delayed_items(), which requires taking the
delayed node's mutex, causing an ABBA type of deadlock. This was reported
by syzbot and the lockdep splat is the following:

  WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected

  syz-executor.2/13257 is trying to acquire lock:

  which lock already depends on the new lock.

  the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:

Fix this by releasing the path before releasing the delayed node in the
error path at __btrfs_run_delayed_items().
