[GIT PULL 54/58] lightnvm: pblk: remove spinlock when freeing line metadata

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

 



From: Hans Holmberg <hans.holmberg@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

Lockdep complains about being in atomic context while freeing line
metadata - and rightly so as we take a spinlock and end up calling
vfree that might sleep(in pblk_mfree).

There is no need for holding the line manager free_lock while
freeing line metadata as the pipeline as stopped, so remove the lock.

Fixes: 588726d3ec68 ("lightnvm: pblk: fail gracefully on irrec. error")
