syz.4.925/11755 is trying to acquire lock:
ffff88804dfed620 (DCACHE_PAR_LOOKUP){+.+.}-{0:0}, at: rcu_lock_acquire include/linux/rcupdate.h:309 [inline]

but task is already holding lock:
ffff88807b1fd1c0 (&type->i_mutex_dir_key#5){++++}-{4:4}, at: inode_lock_shared include/linux/fs.h:1039 [inline]
ffff88807b1fd1c0 (&type->i_mutex_dir_key#5){++++}-{4:4}, at: lookup_slow+0x46/0x80 fs/namei.c:1935

which lock already depends on the new lock.


the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:
