From 01df9c5e918ae5559f2d96da0143f8bfbb9e6171 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Trond Myklebust Date: Thu, 10 Aug 2006 11:58:57 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] LOCKD: Fix a deadlock in nlm_traverse_files() nlm_traverse_files() is not allowed to hold the nlm_file_mutex while calling nlm_inspect file, since it may end up calling nlm_release_file() when releaseing the blocks.
