Jiufei Xue 1edc2feb9c fs: writeback: fix use-after-free in __mark_inode_dirty()
[ Upstream commit d02d2c98d25793902f65803ab853b592c7a96b29 ]

An use-after-free issue occurred when __mark_inode_dirty() get the
bdi_writeback that was in the progress of switching.

                                      old wb released
  wb_wakeup_delayed() accesses wb,
  then trigger the use-after-free
  issue

Fix this race condition by holding inode spinlock until
wb_wakeup_delayed() finished.
