syz.0.1015/9651 is trying to acquire lock:

 (sb_writers

){.+.+}-{0:0}
, at: mnt_want_write_file+0x5c/0x200 fs/namespace.c:430

, at: reiserfs_write_lock+0x75/0xd0 fs/reiserfs/lock.c:27

which lock already depends on the new lock.


the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:

other info that might help us debug this:

Chain exists of:
  sb_writers#31 --> &type->i_mutex_dir_key#21/1 --> &sbi->lock

 Possible unsafe locking scenario:

       CPU0                    CPU1
       ----                    ----
  lock(&sbi->lock);
                               lock(&type->i_mutex_dir_key#21/1);
                               lock(&sbi->lock);
  lock(sb_writers#31);
