From: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> 3.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. =============== commit 17dfeb9113397a6119091a491ef7182649f0c5a9 upstream. Commit d529ef83c355f97027ff85298a9709fe06216a66 (NFS: fix the handling of NFS_INO_INVALID_DATA flag in nfs_revalidate_mapping) introduces a potential race, since it doesn't test the value of nfsi->cache_validity and set the bitlock in nfsi->flags atomically.
