Andreas Gruenbacher 8b2ea9a3a1 gfs2: Disable page faults during lockless buffered reads 
[ Upstream commit 52f3f033a5 ]

During lockless buffered reads, filemap_read() holds page cache page
references while trying to copy data to the user-space buffer.  The
calling process isn't holding the inode glock, but the page references
it holds prevent those pages from being removed from the page cache, and
that prevents the underlying inode glock from being moved to another
node.  Thus, we can end up in the same kinds of distributed deadlock
situations as with normal (non-lockless) buffered reads.

Fix that by disabling page faults during lockless reads as well.

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.
