Subject: [PATCH 8/9] XFS: allow follow_link to often succeed in RCU-walk.
Date: Thu, 05 Mar 2015 16:21:21 +1100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20150305052121.23906.99853.stgit@notabene.brown> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20150305051530.23906.65097.stgit@notabene.brown>

If LOOKUP_RCU is set, use GFP_ATOMIC rather than GFP_KERNEL,
and try to get the ilock without blocking.

When these succeed, follow_link() can succeed without dropping
out of RCU-walk.
