From 7c87df9c159aa1d228f0d77b37942216cff34922 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jiri Kosina Date: Tue, 24 May 2016 16:38:10 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] bcache: bch_writeback_thread() is not freezable bch_writeback_thread() is calling try_to_freeze(), but that's just an expensive no-op given the fact that the thread is not marked freezable. I/O helper kthreads, exactly such as the bcache writeback thread, actually shouldn't be freezable, because they are potentially necessary for finalizing the image write-out.
