When accessing a file with more entries than ES_MAX_ENTRY_NUM, the bh-array
is allocated in __exfat_get_entry_set. The problem is that the bh-array is
allocated with GFP_KERNEL. It does not make sense. In the following cases,
a deadlock for sbi->s_lock between the two processes may occur.
CPU0 CPU1
---- ----
kswapd
balance_pgdat
lock(fs_reclaim)
exfat_iterate
lock(&sbi->s_lock)
exfat_readdir
exfat_get_uniname_from_ext_entry
exfat_get_dentry_set
__exfat_get_dentry_set
kmalloc_array
...
lock(fs_reclaim)
...
evict
exfat_evict_inode
lock(&sbi->s_lock)
To fix this, let's allocate bh-array with GFP_NOFS.

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.
