gfs2: release iopen glock early in evict
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Before this patch, evict would clear the iopen glock's gl_object after
releasing the inode glock.  In the meantime, another process could reuse
the same block and thus glocks for a new inode.  It would lock the inode
glock (exclusively), and then the iopen glock (shared).  The shared
locking mode doesn't provide any ordering against the evict, so by the
time the iopen glock is reused, evict may not have gotten to setting
gl_object to NULL.

Fix that by releasing the iopen glock before the inode glock in
gfs2_evict_inode.
