Title:
  xfs: Fix deadlock between AGI and AGF when target_ip exists in
  xfs_rename()

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  SRU Justification:

  [Impact]

  * The xfs filesystem suffers from a deadlock issue in kernels < 5.5.
  This hangs IO to/from the affected filesystem. Sample backtraces added
  as a comment.

  [Fix]

  * 93597ae8dac0149b5c00b787cba6bf7ba213e666 93597ae8dac0 "xfs: Fix
  deadlock between AGI and AGF when target_ip exists in xfs_rename()"

  * This is from the upstream 5.5 kernel.

  [Test Plan]

  * Set up an Ubuntu Bionic/Focal installation using kernel 5.4.

  * Create and mount an XFS filesystem on a block device.

  * Exercise the filesystem to verify that IO does not hang.

  [Where problems could occur]

  * This patch could cause locking issues on XFS filesystems, requiring
  a system restart to correct.

  [Other Info]

  * Bug is difficult to reproduce, a test kernel on affected systems
  with the above patch prevented the issue.

  * Backports to earlier (4.15 and earlier) kernels have been omitted as
  the upstream patch does not apply cleanly and the issue has not been
  reproduced on them.
