[ Upstream commit b8962a9d8cc2d8c93362e2f684091c79f702f6f3 ]
Before commit 9542e6a643fc6 ("nfsd: Containerise filecache laundrette")
nfsd would close open files in direct reclaim context and that could
cause a deadlock when fsnotify mark allocation went into direct reclaim
and nfsd shrinker tried to free existing fsnotify marks.
To avoid issues like this in future code, set the FSNOTIFY_GROUP_NOFS
flag on nfsd fsnotify group to prevent going into direct reclaim from
fsnotify_add_inode_mark().

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.
