Yup, that's what it looks like to me, too. That means it's the
XFS_IOLOCK_EXCL it is blocking trying to get, not the
XFS_ILOCK_EXCL. Well, that makes sense, and tells me that the
lockdep "held locks" output at the end  also includes locks we are
trying to obtain. That clears up that confusion.

Ok, I'll work from there. Thanks, Ilia.

Dave.
