- seq_read
 - stat_show
  - raw_spin_lock_irqsave(&f2fs_stat_lock, flags)
  : f2fs_stat_lock is raw_spinlock_t type variable
  - update_general_status
   - spin_lock(&sbi->cprc_info.stat_lock);
   : stat_lock is spinlock_t type variable

The root cause is the lock order is incorrect [1], we should not acquire
spinlock_t lock after raw_spinlock_t lock, as if CONFIG_PREEMPT_LOCK is
on, spinlock_t is implemented based on rtmutex, which can sleep after
holding the lock.

To fix this issue, let's use change f2fs_stat_lock lock type from
raw_spinlock_t to spinlock_t, it's safe due to:
- we don't need to use raw version of spinlock as the path is not
performance sensitive.
- we don't need to use irqsave version of spinlock as it won't be
used in irq context.

Quoted from [1]:

"Extend lockdep to validate lock wait-type context.

The current wait-types are:

	LD_WAIT_FREE,		/* wait free, rcu etc.. */
	LD_WAIT_SPIN,		/* spin loops, raw_spinlock_t etc.. */
	LD_WAIT_CONFIG,		/* CONFIG_PREEMPT_LOCK, spinlock_t etc.. */
	LD_WAIT_SLEEP,		/* sleeping locks, mutex_t etc.. */

Where lockdep validates that the current lock (the one being acquired)
fits in the current wait-context (as generated by the held stack).

This ensures that there is no attempt to acquire mutexes while holding
spinlocks, to acquire spinlocks while holding raw_spinlocks and so on. In
other words, its a more fancy might_sleep()."

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 reStructuredText 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.
