An overlayfs instance can be the lower layer of another overlayfs
instance. This setup triggers a lockdep splat of possible recursive
locking of sb->s_type->i_mutex_key in iterate_dir(). Trimmed snip:
[ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ]
bash/2468 is trying to acquire lock:
&sb->s_type->i_mutex_key#14, at: iterate_dir+0x7d/0x15c
but task is already holding lock:
&sb->s_type->i_mutex_key#14, at: iterate_dir+0x7d/0x15c
One problem observed with this splat is that ovl_new_inode()
does not call lockdep_annotate_inode_mutex_key() to annotate
the dir inode lock as &sb->s_type->i_mutex_dir_key like other
fs do.
The other problem is that the 2 nested levels of overlayfs inode
lock are annotated using the same key, which is the cause of the
false positive lockdep warning.
Fix this by annotating overlayfs inode lock in ovl_fill_inode()
according to stack level of the super block instance and use
different key for dir vs. non-dir like other fs do.
Here is an edited snip from /proc/lockdep_chains after
iterate_dir() of nested overlayfs:
[...] &ovl_i_mutex_dir_key[depth] (stack_depth=2)
[...] &ovl_i_mutex_dir_key[depth]#2 (stack_depth=1)
[...] &type->i_mutex_dir_key (stack_depth=0)
