[ Upstream commit 986bf6ed44dff7fbae7b43a0882757ee7f5ba21b ]
At inode_logged() we do a couple lockless checks for ->logged_trans, and these are generally safe except the second one in case we get a load or store tearing due to a concurrent call updating ->logged_trans (either at btrfs_log_inode() or later at inode_logged()).
In the first case it's safe to compare to the current transaction ID since once ->logged_trans is set the current transaction, we never set it to a lower value.
In the second case, where we check if it's greater than zero, we are prone to load/store tearing races, since we can have a concurrent task updating to the current transaction ID with store tearing for example, instead of updating with a single 64 bits write, to update with two 32 bits writes or four 16 bits writes. In that case the reading side at inode_logged() could see a positive value that does not match the current transaction and then return a false negative.
Fix this by doing the second check while holding the inode's spinlock, add some comments about it too. Also add the data_race() annotation to the first check to avoid any reports from KCSAN (or similar tools) and comment about it.
