The patch titled Subject: nilfs2: fix misuse of a semaphore in sysfs code has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was nilfs2-fix-misuse-of-a-semaphore-in-sysfs-code.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: nilfs2: fix misuse of a semaphore in sysfs code Variables ns_seg_seq, ns_segnum, ns_nextnum, ns_pseg_offset, ns_cno, ns_ctime, ns_nongc_ctime, and ns_ndirtyblks, are protected by ns_segctor_sem, but ns_sem is wrongly used by the nilfs sysfs code when reading these variables. This fixes the misuse and clarifies which semaphore protects them in the comment of the_nilfs struct.
