The patch titled reiserfs: turn of ATTR_KILL_S*ID at beginning of reiserfs_setattr has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is reiserfs-turn-of-attr_kill_sid-at-beginning-of-reiserfs_setattr.patch *** Remember to use Documentation/SubmitChecklist when testing your code *** See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: reiserfs: turn of ATTR_KILL_S*ID at beginning of reiserfs_setattr From: Jeff Layton <jlayton@xxxxxxxxxx> reiserfs_setattr can call notify_change recursively using the same iattr struct. This could cause it to trip the BUG() in notify_change. Fix reiserfs to clear those bits near the beginning of the function.
