ocfs2: fix circular locking dependency in ocfs2_dio_end_io_write
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ocfs2: fix circular locking dependency in ocfs2_dio_end_io_write
A circular locking dependency involves INODE_ALLOC_SYSTEM_INODE,
EXTENT_ALLOC_SYSTEM_INODE, and ORPHAN_DIR_SYSTEM_INODE.
1. ocfs2_mknod() acquires INODE_ALLOC then EXTENT_ALLOC.
2. ocfs2_dio_end_io_write() acquires EXTENT_ALLOC for unwritten
extents, then ORPHAN_DIR via ocfs2_del_inode_from_orphan() while still
holding EXTENT_ALLOC.
3. ocfs2_wipe_inode() acquires ORPHAN_DIR then INODE_ALLOC via
ocfs2_remove_inode.
Break the cycle in ocfs2_dio_end_io_write() by freeing the allocation
contexts (releasing EXTENT_ALLOC) before acquiring ORPHAN_DIR.
