Current loop calls vfs_statfs() while holding the q->limits_lock. If
FS takes some locking in vfs_statfs callback, this may lead to ABBA
locking bug (at least, FAT fs has this issue actually).
So this patch calls vfs_statfs() outside q->limits_locks instead,
because looks like no reason to hold q->limits_locks while getting
discord configs.
Chain exists of:
&sbi->fat_lock --> &q->q_usage_counter(io)#17 --> &q->limits_lock
Possible unsafe locking scenario:
CPU0 CPU1
---- ----
lock(&q->limits_lock);
lock(&q->q_usage_counter(io)#17);
lock(&q->limits_lock);
lock(&sbi->fat_lock);
*** DEADLOCK ***

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.
