We had a problem with io hung because it was waiting for c->root to
release the lock.

    counter = -4294967297
  },
  wait_list = {
    next = 0xffff00006786fc28,
    prev = 0xffff00005d0efac8
  },
  wait_lock = {
    raw_lock = {
      {
        val = {
          counter = 0
        },
        {
          locked = 0 '\000',
          pending = 0 '\000'
        },
        {
          locked_pending = 0,
          tail = 0
        }
      }
    }
  },
  osq = {
    tail = {
      counter = 0
    }
  },
  owner = 0xffffa03fdc586603
}

The "counter = -4294967297" means that lock count is -1 and a write lock
is being attempted. Then, we found that there is a btree with a counter
of 1 in btree_cache_freeable.

We found that this is a bug in bch_sectors_dirty_init() when locking c->root:
    (1). Thread X has locked c->root(A) write.
    (2). Thread Y failed to lock c->root(A), waiting for the lock(c->root A).
    (3). Thread X bch_btree_set_root() changes c->root from A to B.
    (4). Thread X releases the lock(c->root A).
    (5). Thread Y successfully locks c->root(A).
    (6). Thread Y releases the lock(c->root B).

Since c->root may change, the correct steps to lock c->root should be
the same as bch_root_usage(), compare after locking.

static unsigned int bch_root_usage(struct cache_set *c)
{
        unsigned int bytes = 0;
        struct bkey *k;
        struct btree *b;
        struct btree_iter iter;

        goto lock_root;

        do {
                rw_unlock(false, b);
lock_root:
                b = c->root;
                rw_lock(false, b, b->level);
        } while (b != c->root);

        for_each_key_filter(&b->keys, k, &iter, bch_ptr_bad)
                bytes += bkey_bytes(k);

        rw_unlock(false, b);

        return (bytes * 100) / btree_bytes(c);
}
