Subject: [PATCH 1/2] exofs: Fix double page_unlock BUG in write_begin/end
Date: Fri, 08 Oct 2010 09:53:57 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4CAF2275.7010500@panasas.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <4CAF1AA1.1090801@panasas.com>
This BUG is there since the first submit of the code, but only triggered
in last Kernel. It's timing related do to the asynchronous object-creation
behaviour of exofs. (Which should be investigated farther)
The bug is obvious hence the fixed.
