Yigal Korman 0df9d41ab5 mm, dax: fix DAX deadlocks (COW fault) ...

DAX handling of COW faults has wrong locking sequence:
	dax_fault does i_mmap_lock_read
	do_cow_fault does i_mmap_unlock_write

Ross's commit[1] missed a fix[2] that Kirill added to Matthew's
commit[3].

Original COW locking logic was introduced by Matthew here[4].

This should be applied to v4.3 as well.

[1] 0f90cc6609 mm, dax: fix DAX deadlocks
[2] 52a2b53ffd mm, dax: use i_mmap_unlock_write() in do_cow_fault()
[3] 843172978b dax: fix race between simultaneous faults
[4] 2e4cdab058 mm: allow page fault handlers to perform the COW
