Subject: dnotify: do not bother to lock entry->lock when reading mask
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ce61856bd2aadb064f595e5c0444376a2b117c41;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal7580.git

dnotify: do not bother to lock entry->lock when reading mask

entry->lock is needed to make sure entry->mask does not change while
manipulating it.  In dnotify_should_send_event() we don't care if we get an
old or a new mask value out of this entry so there is no point it taking
the lock.
