    xfs: fix tmpfile/selinux deadlock and initialize security · 330033d6

    xfstests generic/004 reproduces an ilock deadlock using the tmpfile
    interface when selinux is enabled. This occurs because
    xfs_create_tmpfile() takes the ilock and then calls d_tmpfile(). The
    latter eventually calls into xfs_xattr_get() which attempts to get the
    lock again. E.g.:
    
    xfs_io          D ffffffff81c134c0  4096  3561   3560 0x00000080

    xfs_vn_tmpfile() also fails to initialize security on the newly created
    inode.
    
    Pull the d_tmpfile() call up into xfs_vn_tmpfile() after the transaction
    has been committed and the inode unlocked. Also, initialize security on
    the inode based on the parent directory provided via the tmpfile call.
