Subject: [PATCH 18/20] xfs: use RCU to free 'struct xfs_mount'.
Date: Mon, 23 Mar 2015 13:37:40 +1100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20150323023740.8161.39099.stgit@notabene.brown> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20150323023258.8161.32467.stgit@notabene.brown>

In order for ->follow_link to be safe in RCU-walk, any
data structures accessed need to be freed after
an RCU grace period.

'struct xfs_mount' is not currently guaranteed to be delayed
sufficiently, so use kfree_rcu() to free it.
