Subject: [patch] 2.5.22 add __fput for aio
Date: Mon, 17 Jun 2002 15:47:38 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20020617154738.B1457@redhat.com> (raw)

Hello Linus,

This patch splits fput into fput and __fput.  __fput is needed by aio 
to construct a mechanism for performing fput during io completion, 
which typically occurs during interrupt context.
