xfs: drop iolock from reclaim context to appease lockdep
commit 3b4683c2 upstream. Lockdep complains about use of the iolock in inode reclaim context because it doesn't understand that reclaim has the last reference to the inode, and thus an iolock->reclaim->iolock deadlock is not possible. The iolock is technically not necessary in xfs_inactive() and was only added to appease an assert in xfs_free_eofblocks(), which can be called from other non-reclaim contexts. Therefore, just kill the assert and drop the use of the iolock from reclaim context to quiet lockdep. Signed-off-by: Brian Foster <bfoster@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Darrick J.
