We've already noticed this problem, which is caused by the fact that
ext4_convert_inline_data() in ext4_page_mkwrite() is not protected by
an inode_lock, so it can modify the state of the inode while someone
else is holding the lock.
Unfortunately we don't have a good solution for this at the moment,
as adding inode_lock here could easily form an ABBA deadlock with
mmap_lock. For a more detailed discussion see:
