In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

bcachefs: grab s_umount only if snapshotting

When I was testing mongodb over bcachefs with compression,
there is a lockdep warning when snapshotting mongodb data volume.

$ cat test.sh
prog=bcachefs

$prog subvolume create /mnt/data
$prog subvolume create /mnt/data/snapshots

while true;do
$prog subvolume snapshot /mnt/data /mnt/data/snapshots/$(date +%s)
sleep 1s
done

$ cat /etc/mongodb.conf
systemLog:
destination: file
logAppend: true
path: /mnt/data/mongod.log

storage:
dbPath: /mnt/data/

lockdep reports:
