There is an AA deadlock problem when using block_dump on ext4 file
system with data=journal mode.

  watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#19 stuck for 22s! [jbd2/pmem0-8:1002]

The problem is a race between jbd2 committing data buffer and user
unlink the file concurrently. The jbd2 will get jh->b_state_lock and
redirty the inode's data buffer and inode itself. If block_dump is
enabled, it will try to find inode's dentry and invoke the last dput()
after the inode was unlinked. Then the evict procedure will unmap
buffer and get jh->b_state_lock again in journal_unmap_buffer(), and
finally lead to deadlock. It works fine if block_dump is not enabled
because the last evict procedure is not invoked in jbd2 progress and
the jh->b_state_lock will also prevent inode use after free.

jbd2                                xxx
                                    vfs_unlink
                                     ext4_unlink
jbd2_journal_commit_transaction
**get jh->b_state_lock**
jbd2_journal_refile_buffer
 mark_buffer_dirty
  __mark_inode_dirty
   block_dump___mark_inode_dirty
    d_find_alias
                                     d_delete
                                      unhash
    dput  //put the last refcount
     evict
      journal_unmap_buffer
       **get jh->b_state_lock again**

In most cases of where invoking mark_inode_dirty() will get inode's
refcount and the last iput may not happen, but it's not safe. After
checking the block_dump code, it only want to dump the file name of the
dirty inode, so there is no need to get and put denrty, and dump an
unhashed dentry is also fine. This patch remove the dget() && dput(),
print the dentry name directly.
