If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Will Deacon [ Upstream commit 8cc07c808c9d595e81cbe5aad419b7769eb2e5c9 ] i_dir_seq is subject to concurrent modification by a cmpxchg or store-release operation, so ensure that the relaxed access in d_alloc_parallel uses READ_ONCE.
