[f2fs-dev] [PATCH 3/3] f2fs: use spinlock rather than mutex for betterspeed

From: Gu Zheng
Date: Fri Jan 10 2014 - 05:16:52 EST


With the 2 previous changes, all the long time operations are moved out
of the protection region, so here we can use spinlock rather than mutex
(orphan_inode_mutex) for lower overhead.
