syz.3.1001/9022 is trying to acquire lock:

which lock already depends on the new lock.

other info that might help us debug this:

Chain exists of:
  &dat_lock_key --> sb_internal#2 --> &nilfs->ns_segctor_sem

 Possible unsafe locking scenario:

       CPU0                    CPU1
       ----                    ----
  rlock(&nilfs->ns_segctor_sem);
                               lock(sb_internal#2);
                               lock(&nilfs->ns_segctor_sem);
