[PATCH] mm: Fix sparse warnings in backing-dev.h

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

 



Sparse reports a context imbalance, and indeed _begin() returns
with the RCU lock held and _end() releases it.  Reassure sparse that
this is fine by adding appropriate annotations.
