From: Jens Axboe Date: Mon, 14 Sep 2009 11:12:40 +0000 (+0200) Subject: writeback: use RCU to protect bdi_list X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=cfc4ba5365449cb6b5c9f68d755a142f17da1e47;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git writeback: use RCU to protect bdi_list Now that bdi_writeback_all() no longer handles integrity writeback, it doesn't have to block anymore. This means that we can switch bdi_list reader side protection to RCU.
