iput_final() may wait for reahahead pages. The wait can cause deadlock.
For example:
Workqueue: ceph-msgr ceph_con_workfn [libceph]

In above example, truncate_inode_pages_range() waits for readahead pages
while holding s_mutex. ceph_check_caps() waits for s_mutex and blocks
OSD dispatch thread. Later OSD replies (for readahead) can't be handled.
ceph_check_caps() also may lock snap_rwsem for read. So similar deadlock
can happen if iput_final() is called while holding snap_rwsem.
In general, it's not good to call iput_final() inside MDS/OSD dispatch
threads or while holding any mutex.
The fix is introducing ceph_async_iput(), which calls iput_final() in
workqueue.

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.
