Btrfs: pwrite blocked when writing from the mmaped buffer of the same…
… page This problem is found in meego testing: http://bugs.meego.com/show_bug.cgi?id=6672 A file in btrfs is mmaped and the mmaped buffer is passed to pwrite to write to the same page of the same file. In btrfs_file_aio_write(), the pages is locked by prepare_pages(). So when btrfs_copy_from_user() is called, page fault happens and the same page needs to be locked again in filemap_fault(). The fix is to move iov_iter_fault_in_readable() before prepage_pages() to make page fault happen before pages are locked. And also disable page fault in critical region in btrfs_copy_from_user().
