Subject: [PATCH] ext4: convert to exclusive lock while inserting delalloc
extents

ext4_da_map_blocks() only hold i_data_sem in shared mode and i_rwsem when inserting delalloc extents, it could be raced by another querying path of ext4_map_blocks() without i_rwsem, .e.g buffered read path. Suppose we buffered read a file containing just a hole, and without any cached extents tree, then it is raced by another delayed buffered write to the same area or the near area belongs to the same hole, and the new delalloc extent could be overwritten to a hole extent.

pread() pwrite()
filemap_read_folio()
ext4_mpage_readpages()

    ext4_map_blocks()
     down_read(i_data_sem)
     ext4_ext_determine_hole()
     //find hole
     ext4_ext_put_gap_in_cache()
      ext4_es_find_extent_range()
      //no delalloc extent
                                    ext4_da_map_blocks()
                                     down_read(i_data_sem)
                                     ext4_insert_delayed_block()
                                     //insert delalloc extent
      ext4_es_insert_extent()
      //overwrite delalloc extent to hole

This race could lead to inconsistent delalloc extents tree and incorrect reserved space counter. Fix this by converting to hold i_data_sem in exclusive mode when adding a new delalloc extent in ext4_da_map_blocks().
