The patch titled Subject: fsnotify: convert notification_mutex to a spinlock has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was fsnotify-convert-notification_mutex-to-a-spinlock.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Jan Kara <jack@xxxxxxx> Subject: fsnotify: convert notification_mutex to a spinlock notification_mutex is used to protect the list of pending events. As such there's no reason to use a sleeping lock for it. Convert it to a spinlock.
