Use invalidate_lock instead of XFS internal i_mmap_lock. The intended
purpose of invalidate_lock is exactly the same. Note that the locking in
__xfs_filemap_fault() slightly changes as filemap_fault() already takes
invalidate_lock.

This doesn't look right...

If lockdep is disabled, we always return true for
xfs_isilocked(ip, XFS_MMAPLOCK_EXCL) even if nobody holds the lock?

Granted, you probably just copy-pasted from the IOLOCK_SHARED clause
beneath it.  Er... oh right, preichl was messing with all that...

Indeed copy-paste programming ;) It certainly makes the assertions happy
but useless. Should I pull the patch you reference into the series? It
seems to have been uncontroversial and reviewed. Or will you pull the
series to xfs tree so I can just rebase on top?
The full conversion series introduced assertion failures because lockdep
can't handle some of the ILOCK usage patterns, specifically the fact
that a thread sometimes takes the ILOCK but then hands the inode to a
workqueue to avoid overflowing the first thread's stack.  That's why it
never got merged into the xfs tree.

However, that kind of switcheroo isn't done with the
MMAPLOCK/invalidate_lock, so you could simply pull the patch I linked
above into your series.
