Subject: [PATCH 1/5] writeback: laptop_mode_timer_fn() needs rcu_read_lock() around bdi_writeback iteration
Date: Tue, 29 Sep 2015 12:47:50 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1443545274-18787-2-git-send-email-tj@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1443545274-18787-1-git-send-email-tj-DgEjT+Ai2ygdnm+yROfE0A@public.gmane.org>

laptop_mode_timer_fn() was using bdi_for_each_wb() without the
required RCU locking leading to the following warning.

 WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 0 at include/linux/backing-dev.h:415 laptop_mode_timer_fn+0x106/0x170()
 ...

Fix it by adding rcu_read_lock() around the iteration.
