In gfs2_fill_super(), when mounting a gfs2 filesystem is interrupted,
kthread_create() can return -EINTR. When that happens, we roll back
what has already been done and abort the mount.
Since commit 62dd0f98a0e5 ("gfs2: Flag a withdraw if init_threads()
fails), we are calling gfs2_withdraw_delayed() in gfs2_fill_super();
first via gfs2_make_fs_rw(), then directly. But gfs2_withdraw_delayed()
only marks the filesystem as withdrawing and relies on a caller further
up the stack to do the actual withdraw, which doesn't exist in the
gfs2_fill_super() case. Because the filesystem is marked as withdrawing
/ withdrawn, function gfs2_lm_unmount() doesn't release the dlm
lockspace, so when we try to mount that filesystem again, we get:
gfs2: fsid=gohan:gohan0: Trying to join cluster "lock_dlm", "gohan:gohan0"
gfs2: fsid=gohan:gohan0: dlm_new_lockspace error -17
Since commit b77b4a4815a9 ("gfs2: Rework freeze / thaw logic"), the
deadlock this gfs2_withdraw_delayed() call was supposed to work around
cannot occur anymore because freeze_go_callback() won't take the
sb->s_umount semaphore unconditionally anymore, so we can get rid of the
gfs2_withdraw_delayed() in gfs2_fill_super() entirely.

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.
