This reverts commit c845acb3. It turns out that it just replaces one deadlock with another one: we can still get the wrong lock ordering with the readlock due to overlayfs calling back into the filesystem layer and still taking the vfs locks after the readlock. The proper solution ends up being to just split the readlock into two pieces: the bind lock (taken *outside* the vfs locks) and the IO lock (taken *inside* the filesystem locks). The two locks are independent anyway. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Reviewed-by: Shmulik Ladkani <shmulik.ladkani@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
