commit8fdd60f2aeupstream. This reverts commitad211f3e94. As Jan Kara pointed out, this change was unsafe since it means we lose the call to sync_mapping_buffers() in the nojournal case. The original point of the commit was avoid taking the inode mutex (since it causes a lockdep warning in generic/113); but we need the mutex in order to call sync_mapping_buffers(). The real fix to this problem was discussed here: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20181025150540.259281-4-bvanassche@acm.org The proposed patch was to fix a syzbot complaint, but the problem can also demonstrated via "kvm-xfstests -c nojournal generic/113". Multiple solutions were discused in the e-mail thread, but none have landed in the kernel as of this writing. Anyway, commitad211f3e94is absolutely the wrong way to suppress the lockdep, so revert it.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
