[PATCH 63/64] mm/mmap: hack drop down_write_nest_lock()

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

 



From: Davidlohr Bueso <dave@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

* THIS IS A HACK *

Directly call down_write() on i_mmap_rwsem (such that
we don't have to convert it to a range lock)
