    Subject[PATCH 4.14 057/107] btrfs: remove WARN_ON in log_dir_items
    Date
    4.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

    ------------------

    From: Josef Bacik <josef@toxicpanda.com>

    commit 2cc8334270e281815c3850c3adea363c51f21e0d upstream.

    When Filipe added the recursive directory logging stuff in
    2f2ff0ee5e430 ("Btrfs: fix metadata inconsistencies after directory
    fsync") he specifically didn't take the directory i_mutex for the
    children directories that we need to log because of lockdep. This is
    generally fine, but can lead to this WARN_ON() tripping if we happen to
    run delayed deletion's in between our first search and our second search
    of dir_item/dir_indexes for this directory. We expect this to happen,
    so the WARN_ON() isn't necessary. Drop the WARN_ON() and add a comment
    so we know why this case can happen.
