other info that might help us debug this:

Chain exists of:
  &root->kernfs_rwsem --> fs_reclaim --> &q->q_usage_counter(io)#49

 Possible unsafe locking scenario:

       CPU0                    CPU1
       ----                    ----
  lock(&q->q_usage_counter(io)#49);
                               lock(fs_reclaim);
                               lock(&q->q_usage_counter(io)#49);
  lock(&root->kernfs_rwsem);
