Subject: [PATCH 0/1] cifs: move cifsFileInfo_put logic into a work-queue
Date: Sun, 27 Oct 2019 07:04:18 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20191026210419.7575-1-lsahlber@redhat.com> (raw)

Steve, Pavel, Frank

This patch moves the logic in cifsFileInfo_put() into a work-queue so that
it will be processed in a different thread which, importantly, does not hold
any other locks.

This should address the deadlock that Frank reported in the thread:
Yet another hang after network disruption or smb restart -- multiple file writers
