[ Upstream commit 962cc1ad6caddb5abbb9f0a43e5abe7131a71f18 ]
In commit f2e9ad21 ("xfs: check for race with xfs_reclaim_inode"), we skip an inode if we're racing with freeing the inode via xfs_reclaim_inode, but we forgot to release the rcu read lock when dumping the inode, with the result that we exit to userspace with a lock held. Don't do that; generic/320 with a 1k block size fails this very occasionally.
