Kirk McKusick aa445c9d7c In softdep_setup_inomapdep() we may have to allocate both inodedep
and bmsafemap dependency structures in inodedep_lookup() and
bmsafemap_lookup() respectively. The setup of these structures must
be done while holding the soft-dependency mutex. If the inodedep is
allocated first, it may be freed in the I/O completion callback when
the mutex is released to allocate the bmsafemap. If the bmsafemap is
allocated first, it may be freed in the I/O completion callback when
the mutex is released to allocate the inodedep.

To resolve this problem, bmsafemap_lookup has had a parameter added
that allows a pre-malloc'ed bmsafemap to be passed in so that it does
not need to release the mutex to create a new bmsafemap. The
softdep_setup_inomapdep() routine pre-malloc's a bmsafemap dependency
before acquiring the mutex and starting to build the inodedep with a
call to inodedep_lookup(). The subsequent call to bmsafemap_lookup()
is passed this pre-allocated bmsafemap entry so that it need not
release the mutex if it needs to create a new one.
