Subject: [PATCH] fs/affs: Replace binary semaphores with mutexes
Date: Sun, 27 Oct 2019 15:01:43 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20191027220143.10756-1-dave@stgolabs.net> (raw)

At a slight footprint cost (24 vs 32 bytes), mutexes are more optimal
than semaphores; it's also a nicer interface for mutual exclusion,
which is why they are encouraged over binary semaphores, when possible.

For both i_link_lock and i_ext_lock (and hence i_hash_lock which I
annotated for the hash lock mapping hackery for lockdep), their semantics
imply traditional lock ownership; that is, the lock owner is the same for
both lock/unlock operations and does not run in irq context. Therefore
it is safe to convert.
