Subject: [PATCH] reiserfs: Don't call reiserfs_get_acl() with the reiserfs lock
Date: Thu, 7 Jan 2010 13:49:37 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1262868577-6389-1-git-send-regression-fweisbec@gmail.com> (raw)
reiserfs_get_acl is usually not called under the reiserfs lock,
as it doesn't need it. But it happens when it is called by
reiserfs_acl_chmod(), which creates a dependency inversion against
the private xattr inodes mutexes for the given inode.
We need to call it without the reiserfs lock, especially since
it's unnecessary.
