From: Zhihao Cheng <chengzhihao1@huawei.com> mainline inclusion from mainline-v5.14 commit 819f9ab430a4478ce519e5cc8ae4de438d8ad4ba category: bugfix issue: #I3ZXZF Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?i... --------------------------- Since ubifs_xattr_get and ubifs_xattr_set cannot being executed parallelly after importing @host_ui->xattr_sem, now we can remove ui_mutex imported by commit ab92a20bce3b4c2 ("ubifs: make ubifs_[get|set]xattr atomic"). @xattr_size, @xattr_names and @xattr_cnt can't be out of protection by @host_ui->mutex yet, they are sill accesed in other places, such as pack_inode() called by ubifs_write_inode() triggered by page-writeback.
