CVE-2022-48734

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

btrfs: fix deadlock between quota disable and qgroup rescan worker

Quota disable ioctl starts a transaction before waiting for the qgroup
rescan worker completes. However, this wait can be infinite and results
in deadlock because of circular dependency among the quota disable
ioctl, the qgroup rescan worker and the other task with transaction such
as block group relocation task.

The deadlock happens with the steps following:

1) Task A calls ioctl to disable quota. It starts a transaction and
   waits for qgroup rescan worker completes.
2) Task B such as block group relocation task starts a transaction and
   joins to the transaction that task A started. Then task B commits to
   the transaction. In this commit, task B waits for a commit by task A.
3) Task C as the qgroup rescan worker starts its job and starts a
   transaction. In this transaction start, task C waits for completion
   of the transaction that task A started and task B committed.

This deadlock was found with fstests test case btrfs/115 and a zoned
null_blk device. The test case enables and disables quota, and the
block group reclaim was triggered during the quota disable by chance.
The deadlock was also observed by running quota enable and disable in
parallel with 'btrfs balance' command on regular null_blk devices.

An example report of the deadlock:
