Subject: [PATCH 1/4] fs: do not drop inode_lock in dispose_list
Date: Sun, 24 Oct 2010 19:40:24 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20101024174024.GA2718@lst.de> (raw)
Despite the comment above it we can not safely drop the lock here.
invalidate_list is called from many other places that just umount.
Also switch to proper list macros now that we never drop the lock.
