Subject: [PATCH 0/2] Resolve d_weak_revalidate issues in NFS
Date: Fri, 25 Aug 2017 17:34:41 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <150364635600.31291.11905399689488751395.stgit@noble> (raw)

Following my recent investigations into d_weak_revalidate
I offer these two patches.  The first fixes two closely
related bugs caused by the introduction of d_weak_revalidate.
The second provides a minor code cleanup.

It seems we really do need d_weak_revalidate, but we might
need better documentation describing its purpose.

Thanks,
NeilBrown
