[PATCH v3 02/26] ext4: convert to exclusive lock while inserting delalloc extents

From: Zhang Yi

From: Zhang Yi <yi.zhang@xxxxxxxxxx>

ext4_da_map_blocks() only hold i_data_sem in shared mode and i_rwsem
when inserting delalloc extents, it could be raced by another querying
path of ext4_map_blocks() without i_rwsem, .e.g buffered read path.
Suppose we buffered read a file containing just a hole, and without any
cached extents tree, then it is raced by another delayed buffered write
to the same area or the near area belongs to the same hole, and the new
delalloc extent could be overwritten to a hole extent.

pread() pwrite()
filemap_read_folio()
ext4_mpage_readpages()
ext4_map_blocks()
down_read(i_data_sem)
ext4_ext_determine_hole()
//find hole
ext4_ext_put_gap_in_cache()
ext4_es_find_extent_range()
//no delalloc extent
ext4_da_map_blocks()
down_read(i_data_sem)
ext4_insert_delayed_block()
//insert delalloc extent
ext4_es_insert_extent()
//overwrite delalloc extent to hole

This race could lead to inconsistent delalloc extents tree and
incorrect reserved space counter. Fix this by converting to hold
i_data_sem in exclusive mode when adding a new delalloc extent in
ext4_da_map_blocks().
