[stable] ext4 fscrypt_get_encryption_info() circular locking dependency

[Sergey Senozhatsky <sergey.senozhatsky.work@gmail.com>]

Hi,

I got the following lockdep splat the other day, while running some
tests on 4.19. I didn't test other stable kernels, but it seems that
5.4 should also have similar problem.

As far as I can tell, ext4_dir_open() has been removed quite recently:
https://www.mail-archive.com/linux-f2fs-devel@lists.sourceforge.net/msg18727.html

Eric, Ted, Jaegeuk, how difficult would it be to remove ext4_dir_open()
from the stable kernels? (I'm interested in ext4 in particular, I
understand that other filesystems may also need similar patches)
