[PATCH md] Make writes to md/safe_mode_delay immediately effective.

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



If we reduce the 'safe_mode_delay', it could still wait for the old
delay to completely expire before doing anything about safe_mode.
Thus the effect if the change is delayed.

To make the effect more immediate, run the timeout function
immediately if the delay was reduced.  This may cause it to run
slightly earlier that required, but that is the safer option.
