[PATCH 23/64] mm: huge pagecache: do not check mmap_sem state

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

 



From: Davidlohr Bueso <dave@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

*THIS IS A HACK*

By dropping the rwsem_is_locked checks in zap_pmd_range()
and zap_pud_range() we can avoid having to teach
file_operations about mmrange. For example in xfs:
iomap_dio_rw() is called by .read_iter file callbacks.
