From 55fa6091d83160ca772fc37cebae45d42695a708 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dave Chinner Date: Tue, 22 Mar 2011 22:23:40 +1100 Subject: fs: move i_sb_list out from under inode_lock Protect the per-sb inode list with a new global lock inode_sb_list_lock and use it to protect the list manipulations and traversals. This lock replaces the inode_lock as the inodes on the list can be validity checked while holding the inode->i_lock and hence the inode_lock is no longer needed to protect the list.
