From: Goldwyn Rodrigues <rgoldwyn@xxxxxxxx> Filesystems such as btrfs can perform direct I/O without holding the inode->i_rwsem in some of the cases like writing within i_size. So, remove the check for lockdep_assert_held() in iomap_dio_rw() Signed-off-by: Goldwyn Rodrigues <rgoldwyn@xxxxxxxx> --- fs/iomap/direct-io.c | 2 -- 1 file changed, 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/fs/iomap/direct-io.c b/fs/iomap/direct-io.c index 1a3bf3bd86fb..41c1e7c20a1f 100644 --- a/fs/iomap/direct-io.c +++ b/fs/iomap/direct-io.c @@ -415,8 +415,6 @@ iomap_dio_rw(struct kiocb *iocb, struct iov_iter *iter, struct blk_plug plug; struct iomap_dio *dio; - lockdep_assert_held(&inode->i_rwsem); - if (!count) return 0; -- 2.16.4
