From f55fefd1a5a339b1bd08c120b93312d6eb64a9fb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jan Kara Date: Thu, 30 Oct 2014 10:35:00 +1100 Subject: [PATCH] mm: Remove false WARN_ON from pagecache_isize_extended() The WARN_ON checking whether i_mutex is held in pagecache_isize_extended() was wrong because some filesystems (e.g. XFS) use different locks for serialization of truncates / writes. So just remove the check.
