I can't see why we'd get a task stuck here - it's waiting on the
XFS_ILOCK_EXCL. The only reason for this is if we leaked an unlock
somewhere. It appears you can reproduce this fairly quickly, so
running an event trace via trace-cmd for all the xfs_ilock trace
points and posting the report output might tell us what inode is
blocked and where we leaked (if that is the cause).

Cheers,

Dave.
