Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] elevator: acquire q->sysfs_lock in elevator_change()
Date: Fri, 30 Aug 2013 18:47:16 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130830224716.21812.99333.stgit@hds.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20130830224707.21812.63516.stgit@hds.com>

Add locking of q->sysfs_lock into elevator_change() (an exported function)
to ensure it is held to protect q->elevator from elevator_init(), even if
elevator_change() is called from non-sysfs paths.
sysfs path (elv_iosched_store) uses __elevator_change(), non-locking
version, as the lock is already taken by elv_iosched_store().
