The driver may sleep under a read rcu lock, and function call path is:

       schedule_timeout_uninterruptible --> may sleep
Meanwhile, the rcu_read_lock will be called twice in this situation.

To fix it, the lock is released before "goto".

Seems you are going to double unlock by doing this, since it is unlocked in the xfs_iget_cache_hit.

Thanks

              goto out_error_or_again;
+        }
      } else {
          rcu_read_unlock();
          XFS_STATS_INC(mp, xs_ig_missed);

I think you are right. Please ignore my patch.

Thanks,
