Question: What is the locking order when acquiring the invalidate_lock
of two different files?  Is it the same as i_rwsem (increasing order of
the struct inode pointer) or is it the same as the XFS MMAPLOCK that is
being hoisted here (increasing order of i_ino)?

The reason I ask is that remap_file_range has to do that, but I don't
see any conversions for the xfs_lock_two_inodes(..., MMAPLOCK_EXCL)
calls in xfs_ilock2_io_mmap in this series.
