3.16.36-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Dave Chinner <dchin...@redhat.com>

commit 812176832169c77b4bacddd01edc3e55340263fd upstream.

xfs_swap_extents() holds the ilock over a call to
filemap_write_and_wait(), which can then try to write data and take
the ilock. That causes a self-deadlock.

Fix the deadlock and clean up the code by separating the locking
appropriately. Add a lockflags variable to track what locks we are
holding as we gain and drop them and cleanup the error handling to
always use "out_unlock" with the lockflags variable.
