The patch titled md/bitmap: tidy up i_writecount handling in md/bitmap has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is md-bitmap-tidy-up-i_writecount-handling-in-md-bitmap.patch See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this From: NeilBrown <neilb@xxxxxxx> md/bitmap modifies i_writecount of a bitmap file to make sure that no-one else writes to it. The reverting of the change is sometimes done twice, and there is one error path where it is omitted. This patch tidies that up.
