syz.4.708/9519 is trying to acquire lock:

which lock already depends on the new lock.

other info that might help us debug this:

Chain exists of:
  &type->i_mutex_dir_key#4 --> DCACHE_PAR_LOOKUP --> &ovl_i_mutex_dir_key[depth]

 Possible unsafe locking scenario:

       CPU0                    CPU1
       ----                    ----
  lock(&ovl_i_mutex_dir_key[depth]);
                               lock(DCACHE_PAR_LOOKUP);
                               lock(&ovl_i_mutex_dir_key[depth]);
  rlock(&type->i_mutex_dir_key#4);
