Ivan Pravdin 08eabe4b9e ocfs2: avoid potential ABBA deadlock by reordering tl_inode lock
In ocfs2_move_extent(), tl_inode is currently locked after the global
bitmap inode.  However, in ocfs2_flush_truncate_log(), the lock order is
reversed: tl_inode is locked first, followed by the global bitmap inode.

This creates a classic ABBA deadlock scenario if two threads attempt these
operations concurrently and acquire the locks in different orders.

To prevent this, move the tl_inode locking earlier in ocfs2_move_extent(),
so that it always precedes the global bitmap inode lock.

No functional changes beyond lock ordering.

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 reStructuredText 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.
