[PATCH] VFS: turn off FL_SLEEP when calling do_vfs_lock() just in case and get rid of "VFS is out of sync with lock manager" messages

From: Jesper Juhl
Date: Fri Dec 15 2006 - 08:51:28 EST



Convert "VFS is out of sync with lock manager!" printk() in
do_vfs_lock() to dprintk() since the message is useless in normal use
but could possibly be useful as a debugging aid.
Also turn off FL_SLEEP when calling do_vfs_lock() just in case, after
getting -EINTR or -ERESTARTSYS.

Patch has been tested on a production webserver and works just fine.
