[PATCH 1/2] NFSv4: Fix the locking in nfs_inode_reclaim_delegation()

From: David Howells
Date: Tue Apr 20 2010 - 06:26:35 EST


From: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@xxxxxxxxxx>

Ensure that we correctly rcu-dereference the delegation itself, and that we
protect against removal while we're changing the contents.
