[ Upstream commit 0e94c4f45d ]
The scrub context is allocated with GFP_KERNEL and called from
btrfs_scrub_dev under the fs_info::device_list_mutex. This is not safe
regarding reclaim that could try to flush filesystem data in order to
get the memory. And the device_list_mutex is held during superblock
commit, so this would cause a lockup.
Move the alocation and initialization before any changes that require
the mutex.

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.
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.
