From 9a8d248e2d2e9c880ac4561f27fea5dc200655bd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "J. Bruce Fields" Date: Tue, 6 Jan 2009 13:37:03 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] nfsd: fix double-locks of directory mutex A number of nfsd operations depend on the i_mutex to cover more code than just the fsync, so the approach of 4c728ef583b3d8 "add a vfs_fsync helper" doesn't work for nfsd. Revert the parts of those patches that touch nfsd. Note: we can't, however, remove the logic from vfs_fsync that was needed only for the special case of nfsd, because a vfs_fsync(NULL,...) call can still result indirectly from a stackable filesystem that was called by nfsd. (Thanks to Christoph Hellwig for pointing this out.) Reported-by: Eric Sesterhenn Signed-off-by: J.
