In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: btrfs: defrag: fix deadlock between defrag and delalloc space reservation While running fsstress with autodefrag and flushoncommit, hit a deadlock due to the fact that defrag reserves delalloc space while it's holding dirty and locked folios, besides the extent range lock.
