gfs2 takes the glock before calling into filemap fault, so add the
fsnotify hook for ->fault before we take the glock in order to avoid any
possible deadlock with the HSM.

The idea of interactions between GFS2 cluster locking and HSM gives me
creeps. But yes, this patch looks good to me. Would be nice to get ack from
GFS2 guys. Andreas?

If we are being honest, I think that the fact that HSM events require careful
handling in ->fault() and not to mention no documentation of this fact,
perhaps we should let HSM events be an opt-in file_system_type feature?

Additionally, we had to introduce FS_DISALLOW_NOTIFY_PERM
and restrict sb marks on SB_NOUSER, all because these fanotify
features did not require fs opt-in to begin with.

I think we would be repeating this mistake if we do not add
FS_ALLOW_HSM from the start.

After all, I cannot imagine HSM being used on anything but
the major disk filesystems.

Hmm?

Amir.

Yeah, I was considering this already when thinking about btrfs quirks with
readahead and various special filesystem ioctls and I agree that a need to be
careful with page faults is another good reason to make this a
per-filesystem opt in. Will you send a patch?

I did a lot of gfs2 work originally so I'm familiar with how it works, otherwise
I definitely would have just left it off.

That being said I'd also be fine with just gating it at an FS level.  Thanks,

Josef

Huh! I am still struggling to keep my head above the water
coming back from a long vacation, so I think it is better if Josef takes
that as well.

But here is a trivial, untested, probably broken, space damaged patch,
that should be broken and squashed into other patches in the series
if this is any help at all...

Thanks,
Amir.
