Hi Sean,                                                                         

Will you post [1] to fix the AB-BA deadlock issue for huge page in-place
conversion as well?

Without it, the "WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected" would
still appear due to

- lock(mapping.invalidate_lock#4) --> lock(&mm->mmap_lock)
  for init mem on non-in-place-conversion guest_memfd
- rlock(&mm->mmap_lock) --> rlock(mapping.invalidate_lock#4)
  for faulting shared pages on in-place-convertion guest_memfd

Thanks
