[PATCH] fs: xfs: fix a possible data race in xfs_inode_set_reclaim_tag()

[Jia-Ju Bai]

We find that xfs_inode_set_reclaim_tag() and xfs_reclaim_inode() are
concurrently executed at runtime in the following call contexts:

Thread1:
  xfs_fs_put_super()
    xfs_unmountfs()
      xfs_rtunmount_inodes()
        xfs_irele()
          xfs_fs_destroy_inode()
            xfs_inode_set_reclaim_tag()

Thread2:
  xfs_reclaim_worker()
    xfs_reclaim_inodes()
      xfs_reclaim_inodes_ag()
        xfs_reclaim_inode()

In xfs_inode_set_reclaim_tag():
  pag = xfs_perag_get(mp, XFS_INO_TO_AGNO(mp, ip->i_ino));
  ...
  spin_lock(&ip->i_flags_lock);

In xfs_reclaim_inode():
  spin_lock(&ip->i_flags_lock);
  ...
  ip->i_ino = 0;
  spin_unlock(&ip->i_flags_lock);

Thus, a data race can occur for ip->i_ino.

To fix this data race, the spinlock ip->i_flags_lock is used to protect
the access to ip->i_ino in xfs_inode_set_reclaim_tag().

This data race is found by our concurrency fuzzer.
