[akpm]

The patch titled
     Subject: ocfs2/acl: use 'ip_xattr_sem' to protect getting extended attribute
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     ocfs2-acl-use-ip_xattr_sem-to-protect-getting-extended-attribute.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

Subject: ocfs2/acl: use 'ip_xattr_sem' to protect getting extended attribute

The race between *set_acl and *get_acl will cause getting incomplete xattr
data as below:

processA                                    processB

ocfs2_set_acl
  ocfs2_xattr_set
    __ocfs2_xattr_set_handle

                                            ocfs2_get_acl_nolock
                                              ocfs2_xattr_get_nolock:

processB may get incomplete xattr data if processA hasn't set_acl done. 
So we should use 'ip_xattr_sem' to protect getting extended attribute in
ocfs2_get_acl_nolock(), as other processes could be changing it
concurrently.
