[PATCH 04/13] locking/rt-mutex: Flush block plug on __down_read()

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

 



4.14.109-rt58-rc1 stable review patch.
If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Scott Wood <swood@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 0d5d32425a0cab4a282dd79fc953d76a3ab17072 ]

__down_read() bypasses the rtmutex frontend to call
rt_mutex_slowlock_locked() directly, and thus it needs to call
blk_schedule_flush_flug() itself.
