[Andrew Morton]

The quilt patch titled
     Subject: dax/bus.c: use the right locking mode (read vs write) in size_show
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     dax-busc-use-the-right-locking-mode-read-vs-write-in-size_show.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-stable branch
of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

In size_show(), the dax_dev_rwsem only needs a read lock, but was
acquiring a write lock.  Change it to down_read_interruptible() so it
doesn't unnecessarily hold a write lock.
