f2fs: call unlock_new_inode() before d_instantiate()
Cherry-pick from origin/upstream-f2fs-stable-linux-4.4.y:
dafecc032ea1 ("f2fs: call unlock_new_inode() before d_instantiate()")
xfstest generic/429 sometimes hangs on f2fs, caused by a thread being
unable to take a directory's i_rwsem for write in vfs_rmdir(). In the
test, one thread repeatedly creates and removes a directory, and other
threads repeatedly look up a file in the directory. The bug is that
f2fs_mkdir() calls d_instantiate() before unlock_new_inode(), resulting
in the directory inode being exposed to lookups before it has been fully
initialized. And with CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC, unlock_new_inode()
reinitializes ->i_rwsem, corrupting its state when it is already held.
Fix it by calling unlock_new_inode() before d_instantiate(). This
matches what other filesystems do.
Fixes: 57397d86c62d ("f2fs: add inode operations for special inodes")
