Commit 0e539ca1bbbe ("gfs2: Fix NULL pointer dereference in gfs2_rgrp_dump")
introduced additional locking in gfs2_rgrp_go_dump, which is also used for
dumping resource group glocks via debugfs. However, on that code path, the
glock spin lock is already taken in dump_glock, and taking it again in
gfs2_glock2rgrp leads to deadlock. This can be reproduced with:
$ mkfs.gfs2 -O -p lock_nolock /dev/FOO
$ mount /dev/FOO /mnt/foo
$ touch /mnt/foo/bar
$ cat /sys/kernel/debug/gfs2/FOO/glocks
Fix that by not taking the glock spin lock inside the go_dump callback.

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.
