other info that might help us debug this:

Chain exists of:
  &sbi->lock --> sb_writers#9 --> &type->i_mutex_dir_key#6/1

 Possible unsafe locking scenario:

       CPU0                    CPU1
       ----                    ----
  lock(&type->i_mutex_dir_key#6/1);
                               lock(sb_writers#9);
                               lock(&type->i_mutex_dir_key#6/1);
  lock(&sbi->lock);
