Hi Here I'm sending a patch for this warning. Mikulas From: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@xxxxxxxxxx> There's a smatch warning "inconsistent returns '&wc->lock'" in dm-writecache. The reason for the warning is that the function writecache_map doesn't drop the lock on the impossible path. This patch adds wc_unlock after the BUG statement (so that it will be compiled-away anyway) to fix the warning.
