Re: [PATCH] fuse: Dont set_page_dirty_lock() for ITER_BVEC pages for async_dio

[Ashish Samant <ashish.samant@oracle.com>]

Hi,

Any update here? This attempts to fix a real deadlock which happens as 
soon as a loop device is created in a fuse mount point with the 
async_dio mount option enabled.

Thanks,
Ashish
