Subject: [PATCH 10/20] ovl: narrow locking in ovl_cleanup_index()
Date: Fri, 11 Jul 2025 09:03:40 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250710232109.3014537-11-neil@brown.name> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250710232109.3014537-1-neil@brown.name>
ovl_cleanup_index() takes a lock on the directory and then does a lookup
and possibly one of two different cleanups.
This patch narrows the locking to use the _unlocked() versions of the
lookup and one cleanup, and just takes the lock for the other cleanup.
A subsequent patch will take the lock into the cleanup.
