[PATCH v2 04/28] NFS: Ensure we always dereference the page head last

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

 



This fixes a race with nfs_page_group_sync_on_bit() whereby the
call to wake_up_bit() in nfs_page_group_unlock() could occur after
the page header had been freed.
