Subject: [PATCH] simplify udf_iget, fix race
Date: Sun, 12 Dec 2004 14:34:51 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20041212133451.GA6425@lst.de> (raw)

udf_iget calls __udf_read_inode after the inode has been unlocked and
other threads could access it.  Switching to iget_locked() fixes this
race and nicely simplifies the code.
