    ocfs2: fix race between dio and recover orphan · 512f62ac

    During direct io the inode will be added to orphan first and then
    deleted from orphan.  There is a race window that the orphan entry will
    be deleted twice and thus trigger the BUG when validating
    OCFS2_DIO_ORPHANED_FL in ocfs2_del_inode_from_orphan.
    
    ocfs2_direct_IO_write
        ...
        ocfs2_add_inode_to_orphan
        >>>>>>>> race window.
                 1) another node may rm the file and then down, this node
                 take care of orphan recovery and clear flag
                 OCFS2_DIO_ORPHANED_FL.
                 2) since rw lock is unlocked, it may race with another
                 orphan recovery and append dio.
        ocfs2_del_inode_from_orphan
    
    So take inode mutex lock when recovering orphans and make rw unlock at the
    end of aio write in case of append dio.
