  - fuse: fix invalidate lock leak on open O_TRUNC DAX failure fuse_open() takes filemap_invalidate_lock() for
    a DAX truncate (dax_truncate = true) and releases it before the out_inode_unlock label. But when
    fuse_dax_break_layouts() fails, the goto out_inode_unlock skips the unlock and leaks the rwsem, so any
    later fault or truncate on the file stalls on the stale lock. fuse_dax_break_layouts() can fail with
    -ERESTARTSYS when a signal interrupts the wait for busy DAX pages to drain: open(file, O_RDWR | O_TRUNC)
     fuse_open()  filemap_invalidate_lock() # dax_truncate  fuse_dax_break_layouts() 
    dax_break_layout()  wait_page_idle() # TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE  fuse_wait_dax_page() # unlock, schedule,
    re-lock  signal  -ERESTARTSYS goto out_inode_unlock # <- lock leaked Fix this by moving
    filemap_invalidate_unlock() below the label so that all error paths release the lock, and rename the label
    to out_unlock as it now covers more than just the inode lock. (CVE-2026-80855)
