Subject: [PATCH 14/20] ovl: change ovl_workdir_cleanup() to take dir lock as needed.
Date: Fri, 11 Jul 2025 09:03:44 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250710232109.3014537-15-neil@brown.name> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250710232109.3014537-1-neil@brown.name>
Rather than calling ovl_workdir_cleanup() with the dir already locked,
change it to take the dir lock only when needed.
