The patch titled ext3: fix setup_new_group_blocks locking has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was ext3-fix-setup_new_group_blocks-locking.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: ext3: fix setup_new_group_blocks locking From: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@xxxxxxxxxx> setup_new_group_blocks() manipulates the group descriptor block bh under the block_bitmap bh's lock. It shouldn't matter since nobody but resize should be touching these blocks, but it's worth fixing up.
