This usually maps down to get_block, which expects the page lock to prevent such a situation. This causes ext2 to explode for one reason or another. Serialise those calls for the moment. For common usages today, I suspect get_xip_mem rarely is called to create new blocks. In future as XIP technologies evolve we might need to look at which operations require scalability, and rework the locking to suit.
