WARNING: possible irq lock inversion dependency detected
syzkaller #0 Not tainted
--------------------------------------------------------
syz-executor/6572 just changed the state of lock:
ffff800097626150 (&p->sequence){+.-.}-{0:0}, at: writeout_period+0x94/0x11c mm/page-writeback.c:615
but this lock was taken by another, HARDIRQ-safe lock in the past:
(&xa->xa_lock#10){-.-.}-{3:3}


and interrupts could create inverse lock ordering between them.


other info that might help us debug this:
Possible interrupt unsafe locking scenario:

#syz fix: flex_proportions: make fprop_new_period() hardirq safe

This was fixed by Jan a few weeks ago (commit dd9e2f5b38f1f in the
linux-next tree) [1]. I think Jan's fix just hasn't been
pulled into the arm64 tree yet [2].

Thanks,
Joanne
