[PATCH AUTOSEL 5.4 14/29] gfs2: Fix use-after-free in gfs2_glock_shrink_scan

From: Sasha Levin

[ Upstream commit 1ab19c5de4c537ec0d9b21020395a5b5a6c059b2 ]

The GLF_LRU flag is checked under lru_lock in gfs2_glock_remove_from_lru() to
remove the glock from the lru list in __gfs2_glock_put().

On the shrink scan path, the same flag is cleared under lru_lock but because
of cond_resched_lock(&lru_lock) in gfs2_dispose_glock_lru(), progress on the
put side can be made without deleting the glock from the lru list.

Keep GLF_LRU across the race window opened by cond_resched_lock(&lru_lock) to
ensure correct behavior on both sides - clear GLF_LRU after list_del under
lru_lock.
