other info that might help us debug this:

Chain exists of:
  &sbi->s_writepages_rwsem --> jbd2_handle --> &ei->xattr_sem

 Possible unsafe locking scenario:

       CPU0                    CPU1
       ----                    ----
  lock(&ei->xattr_sem);

                               lock(&ei->xattr_sem);
  rlock(&sbi->s_writepages_rwsem);
