Yangtao Li 14922f0cc9 hfsplus: remove mutex_lock check in hfsplus_free_extents 
[ Upstream commit fcb96956c9 ]

Syzbot reported an issue in hfsplus filesystem:

To avoid deadlock, Commit 31651c6071 ("hfsplus: avoid deadlock
on file truncation") unlock extree before hfsplus_free_extents(),
and add check wheather extree is locked in hfsplus_free_extents().

However, when operations such as hfsplus_file_release,
hfsplus_setattr, hfsplus_unlink, and hfsplus_get_block are executed
concurrently in different files, it is very likely to trigger the
WARN_ON, which will lead syzbot and xfstest to consider it as an
abnormality.

The comment above this warning also describes one of the easy
triggering situations, which can easily trigger and cause
xfstest&syzbot to report errors.

[task A]			[task B]
->hfsplus_file_release
  ->hfsplus_file_truncate
    ->hfs_find_init
      ->mutex_lock
    ->mutex_unlock
				->hfsplus_write_begin
				  ->hfsplus_get_block
				    ->hfsplus_file_extend
				      ->hfsplus_ext_read_extent
				        ->hfs_find_init
					  ->mutex_lock
    ->hfsplus_free_extents
      WARN_ON(mutex_is_locked) !!!

Several threads could try to lock the shared extents tree.
And warning can be triggered in one thread when another thread
has locked the tree. This is the wrong behavior of the code and
we need to remove the warning.

README 

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.
