Subject: [PATCH] ext4: fix missing i_data_sem lock in move_extent repair path
Author: kartikey406@gmail.com

#syz test: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git master

ext4_swap_extents() requires both i_data_sem locks to be held, as
enforced by BUG_ON checks at the function entry. However, the
repair_branches error path in mext_move_extent() calls
ext4_swap_extents() without holding these locks.

When mext_folio_mkwrite() fails after a successful extent swap, the
code jumps to repair_branches to restore the original extent mapping.
At this point, i_data_sem has already been released, causing the
BUG_ON in ext4_swap_extents() to trigger.

Fix this by acquiring i_data_sem for both inodes before calling
ext4_swap_extents() in the repair_branches path, matching the
locking pattern used in the normal swap path.
