[PATCH 0/4] kill-the-bkl/reiserfs: fix some lock dependency inversions

[Frederic Weisbecker]

Hi,

This small set fixes some lock dependency inversions found in reiserfs
xattr and mmap paths.
I guess there are still some of them that I'll have to hunt, especially one
reported by Laurent Riffard and another one introduced by the reiserfs_readdir
path optimization (though I'm not sure about the latter, I have yet to find a
way to reproduce it properly).

As usual, these patches can be found at:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/frederic/random-tracing.git \
	reiserfs/kill-bkl

Thanks,
Frederic.
