    bcachefs: remove sb lock and flags update on explicit shutdown · d9e14a4e
    Brian Foster authored
    bcachefs grabs s_umount and sets SB_RDONLY when the fs is shutdown
    via the ioctl() interface. This has a couple issues related to
    interactions between shutdown and freeze:
    
    1. The flags == FSOP_GOING_FLAGS_DEFAULT case is a deadlock vector
       because freeze_bdev() calls into freeze_super(), which also
       acquires s_umount.
    
    2. If an explicit shutdown occurs while the sb is frozen, SB_RDONLY
       alters the thaw path as if the sb was read-only at freeze time.
       This effectively leaks the frozen state and leaves the sb frozen
       indefinitely.
    
    The usage of SB_RDONLY here goes back to the initial bcachefs commit
    and AFAICT is simply historical behavior. This behavior is unique to
    bcachefs relative to the handful of other filesystems that support
    the shutdown ioctl(). Typically, SB_RDONLY is reserved for the
    proper remount path, which itself is restricted from modifying
    frozen superblocks in reconfigure_super(). Drop the unnecessary sb
    lock and flags update bch2_ioc_goingdown() to address both of these
    issues.
