xfs: fix swapext ilock deadlock
xfs_swap_extents() holds the ilock over a call to filemap_write_and_wait(), which can then try to write data and take the ilock. That causes a self-deadlock. Fix the deadlock and clean up the code by separating the locking appropriately. Add a lockflags variable to track what locks we are holding as we gain and drop them and cleanup the error handling to always use "out_unlock" with the lockflags variable.
