[PATCH 08/19] pstore: shrink the pstore_sb_lock critical section in pstore_kill_sb

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

 



->kill_sb can't race with creating ->fill_super because pstore is a
_single file system that only ever has a single sb instance, and we wait
for the previous one to go away before creating a new one.  Reduce
the critical section so that is is not held over generic_shutdown_super.
