plain fs sb_writers --> pipe->mutex

This is just a plain splice from a pipe to a regular file (which can
be on the upper layer of overlayfs).

overlayfs directory i_mutex --> plain fs sb_writers

This is perfectly normal lock ordering for overlayfs: lock the
overlayfs inode, then call mnt_want_write() on the upper filesystem.

kernfs of->mutex --> overlayfs directory i_mutex

The device name is written to /sys/power/resume. When performing the
lookup of the name, the inode lock is taken on the directory, which
happens to be on overlayfs.

seqfile p->lock --> kernfs of->mutex

Reading an attribute. It could be "/sys/power/resume", but here we
don't know, it's just the same lock class.

pipe->mutex --> seqfile p->lock

This is a sendfile from a seqfile. Could have been
"/sys/power/resume" as well, AFAICS.

I don't really know if/how this needs fixing, but that path lookup in
resume_store() looks a bit nasty.

Thanks,
