OGAWA Hirofumi b49125574c loop: Fix ABBA locking race
Current loop calls vfs_statfs() while holding the q->limits_lock. If
FS takes some locking in vfs_statfs callback, this may lead to ABBA
locking bug (at least, FAT fs has this issue actually).

So this patch calls vfs_statfs() outside q->limits_locks instead,
because looks like no reason to hold q->limits_locks while getting
discord configs.

Chain exists of:
  &sbi->fat_lock --> &q->q_usage_counter(io)#17 --> &q->limits_lock

 Possible unsafe locking scenario:

       CPU0                    CPU1
       ----                    ----
  lock(&q->limits_lock);
                               lock(&q->q_usage_counter(io)#17);
                               lock(&q->limits_lock);
  lock(&sbi->fat_lock);

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 reStructuredText 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.
