Jan Kara b113f90204 ext4: Fix deadlock during directory rename
[ Upstream commit 3c92792da8506a295afb6d032b4476e46f979725 ]

As lockdep properly warns, we should not be locking i_rwsem while having
transactions started as the proper lock ordering used by all directory
handling operations is i_rwsem -> transaction start. Fix the lock
ordering by moving the locking of the directory earlier in
ext4_rename().

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.
