Amir Goldstein e79719a2ca fanotify: use fsnotify group lock helpers
Direct reclaim from fanotify mark allocation context may try to evict
inodes with evictable marks of the same group and hit this deadlock:

[<0>] fsnotify_destroy_mark+0x1f/0x3a
[<0>] fsnotify_destroy_marks+0x71/0xd9
[<0>] __destroy_inode+0x24/0x7e
[<0>] destroy_inode+0x2c/0x67
[<0>] dispose_list+0x49/0x68
[<0>] prune_icache_sb+0x5b/0x79
[<0>] super_cache_scan+0x11c/0x16f
[<0>] shrink_slab.constprop.0+0x23e/0x40f
[<0>] shrink_node+0x218/0x3e7
[<0>] do_try_to_free_pages+0x12a/0x2d2
[<0>] try_to_free_pages+0x166/0x242
[<0>] __alloc_pages_slowpath.constprop.0+0x30c/0x903

[<0>] cache_grow_begin+0x6f/0x31e
[<0>] fallback_alloc+0xe0/0x12d
[<0>] ____cache_alloc_node+0x15a/0x17e
[<0>] kmem_cache_alloc_trace+0xa1/0x143
[<0>] fanotify_add_mark+0xd5/0x2b2
[<0>] do_fanotify_mark+0x566/0x5eb
[<0>] __x64_sys_fanotify_mark+0x21/0x24
[<0>] do_syscall_64+0x6d/0x80
[<0>] entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xae

Set the FSNOTIFY_GROUP_NOFS flag to prevent going into direct reclaim
from allocations under fanotify group lock and use the safe group lock
helpers.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

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.
