[PATCH] block: work around sparse in queue_limits_commit_update

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The spare lock context tracking warns about the mutex unlock in
queue_limits_commit_update despite the __releases annoation:

block/blk-settings.c:263:9: warning: context imbalance in 'queue_limits_commit_update' - wrong
count at exit

As far as I can tell that is because the sparse lock tracking code is
busted for inline functions.  Work around it by splitting an inline
wrapper out of queue_limits_commit_update and doing the unlock there.
