[ Upstream commit5ffe57da29] use_all_metadata() acquires read_lock(&ife_mod_lock), then calls add_metainfo() which calls find_ife_oplist() which acquires the same lock again. Deadlock! Introduce __add_metainfo() which accepts struct tcf_meta_ops *ops as an additional parameter and let its callers to decide how to find it. For use_all_metadata(), it already has ops, no need to find it again, just call __add_metainfo() directly. And, as ife_mod_lock is only needed for find_ife_oplist(), this means we can make non-atomic allocation for populate_metalist() now.

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.
