commit 85784f9395 upstream.
If a page is already locked, attempting to dirty it leads to a deadlock
in lock_page(). This is what currently happens to ITER_BVEC pages when
a dio-enabled loop device is backed by ceph:
$ losetup --direct-io /dev/loop0 /mnt/cephfs/img
$ xfs_io -c 'pread 0 4k' /dev/loop0
Follow other file systems and only dirty ITER_IOVEC pages.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
