[PATCH 18/18] dax: Remove i_mmap_lock protection

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

 



Currently faults are protected against truncate by filesystem specific
i_mmap_sem and page lock in case of hole page. Cow faults are protected
DAX radix tree entry locking. So there's no need for i_mmap_lock in DAX
code. Remove it.
