--- Comment #1 from Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> ---
So one note is that we are likely waiting for writeback on some page in that
file to finish. Another note is that I don't think another process has the file
open - the stacktrace clearly shows that we are completely deleting the file
which means noone can have the file open (if you can really show otherwise, it
would be a major bug).

I guess the file has been written quite recently and the filesystem is quite
loaded with the IO, isn't it?

Can you try mounting the filesystem with 'noauto_da_alloc' mount option?
