Subject: [PATCH v2 4/8] nfsd: rename nfsd_mutex to nfsd_global_mutex
Date: Tue, 22 Sep 2026 07:34:05 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260922-nfsd-per-net-mutex-v2-4-4a5da8243a73@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260922-nfsd-per-net-mutex-v2-0-4a5da8243a73@kernel.org>
With nn->nfsd_mutex now carrying the per-namespace control plane, give the
remaining module-wide mutex a name that says which one a call site means.
Mechanical; no functional change.
