The patch titled hugetlbfs: add lock annotation to hugetlbfs_forget_inode() has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is hugetlbfs-add-lock-annotation-to-hugetlbfs_forget_inode.patch See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: hugetlbfs: add lock annotation to hugetlbfs_forget_inode() From: Josh Triplett <josht@xxxxxxxxxx> hugetlbfs_forget_inode releases inode_lock. Add a lock annotation to this function so that sparse can check callers for lock pairing, and so that sparse will not complain about this functions since it intentionally uses the lock in this manner.
