syzbot report [1] describes a deadlock when write operation against an
ashmem fd executed at the time when ashmem is shrinking its cache results
in the following lock sequence:
Possible unsafe locking scenario:
CPU0 CPU1
---- ----
lock(fs_reclaim);
lock(&sb->s_type->i_mutex_key#13);
lock(fs_reclaim);
lock(&sb->s_type->i_mutex_key#13);
kswapd takes fs_reclaim and then inode_lock while generic_perform_write
takes inode_lock and then fs_reclaim. However ashmem does not support
writing into backing shmem with a write syscall. The only way to change
its content is to mmap it and operate on mapped memory. Therefore the race
that lockdep is warning about is not valid. Resolve this by introducing a
separate lockdep class for the backing shmem inodes.
