    NTFS: 2.1.14 - Fix an NFSd caused deadlock reported by several users. · 290a768a
    Anton Altaparmakov authored
    - Modify fs/ntfs/ntfs_readdir() to copy the index root attribute value
      to a buffer so that we can put the search context and unmap the mft
      record before calling the filldir() callback.  We need to do this
      because of NFSd which calls ->lookup() from its filldir callback()
      and this causes NTFS to deadlock as ntfs_lookup() maps the mft record
      of the directory and since ntfs_readdir() has got it mapped already
      ntfs_lookup() deadlocks.
