Re: Linux 3.14.58

Hi,
We've noticed livelocks in shrink_dentry_list() very similar to this
report on stable 3.14.56:
http://lkml.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1405.3/00470.html
It appears that the patches that introduced this issue came into 3.14.51
in August with the same set of patches mentioned in the referenced
report. We unfortunately haven't narrowed down a reproducer, so I can't
bisect the issue, but 3.14.50 did not appear to have the issue.
Upstream merge commit - 6f6111e4a73d0f6370eb8be4f8e4523210b6a67d (Pull
vfs dcache livelock fix from Al Viro) brought in a series to address
this issue. So that may be needed here as well...
Thanks,
-Jason
