[PATCH] xfs: fix the ABBA deadlock around agf and inode

[Wang Jianchao (Kuaishou)]

Recently, we encounter a deadlock case where there are many tasks
hung on agi and agf xfs_buf. It end up with a deadlock between
agf and inode xfs_buf as following,

xfs_ifree()             xfs_bmap_btalloc()
xfs_iunlink_remove()    xfs_alloc_vextent()
  hold inode bp           hold agf
xfs_difree()            xfs_trans_log_inode()
  require agf             require inode bp

The task requires inode bp with agf held block other tasks which
want to require agf with agi held. Then the whole filesystem
looks like a agi/agf deadlock. To fix this issue, get agf in
xfs_iunlink_remove() after it get agi and before get indoe bp.
