Its filename was shmem_getpage-return-page-locked.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: shmem_getpage return page locked From: Hugh Dickins In the new aops, write_begin is supposed to return the page locked: though I've seen no ill effects, that's been overlooked in the case of shmem_write_begin, and should be fixed. Then shmem_write_end must unlock the page: do so _after_ updating i_size, as we found to be important in other filesystems (though since shmem pages don't go the usual writeback route, they never suffered from that corruption). For shmem_write_begin to return the page locked, we need shmem_getpage to return the page locked in SGP_WRITE case as well as SGP_CACHE case: let's simplify the interface and return it locked even when SGP_READ.
