Subject: [PATCH 08/12] ext4: start handle at the last possible moment in ext4_rmdir()
Date: Sat,  9 Feb 2013 16:53:48 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1360446832-12724-9-git-send-email-tytso@mit.edu> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1360446832-12724-1-git-send-email-tytso@mit.edu>

Don't start the jbd2 transaction handle until after the directory
entry has been found, to minimize the amount of time that a handle is
held active.
