[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.14 103/127] fuse: don't check refcount after stealing page

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

 



From: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 32f98877c57bee6bc27f443a96f49678a2cd6a50 ]

page_count() is unstable.  Unless there has been an RCU grace period
between when the page was removed from the page cache and now, a
speculative reference may exist from the page cache.
