> +_put_lseg_common(struct pnfs_layout_segment *lseg) The naming of _put_lseg_common is pretty weird compared to standard Linux function naming.

You'd be much better to just do a free_lseg(lseg); after releasing the lock. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-nfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
