Bob Peterson 888d9b829c gfs2: Never call gfs2_block_zero_range with an open transaction
[ Upstream commit 70499cdfeb3625c87eebe4f7a7ea06fa7447e5df ]

Before this patch, some functions started transactions then they called
gfs2_block_zero_range. However, gfs2_block_zero_range, like writes, can
start transactions, which results in a recursive transaction error.
For example:

do_shrink
   trunc_start
      gfs2_trans_begin <------------------------------------------------
         gfs2_block_zero_range
            iomap_zero_range(inode, from, length, NULL, &gfs2_iomap_ops);
               iomap_apply ... iomap_zero_range_actor
                  iomap_begin
                     gfs2_iomap_begin
                        gfs2_iomap_begin_write
                  actor (iomap_zero_range_actor)
		     iomap_zero
			iomap_write_begin
			   gfs2_iomap_page_prepare
			      gfs2_trans_begin <------------------------

This patch reorders the callers of gfs2_block_zero_range so that they
only start their transactions after the call. It also adds a BUG_ON to
ensure this doesn't happen again.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

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.
