Hmm.... yes, probably, but then ext4_ioend_wait() can only be safely used by ext4_evict_inode(). I'll make the change, but I'll also make a comment to this effect. (No one else is using it now, but if there was ever a need to use it while the inode was in use, using cancel_work_sync() would be highly dagernous/racy. That being said, I can't really think of a good use case other than evict_inode path, so it seems fine to make this change.) - Ted -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ext4" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
