[PATCH 02/17] fs: icache lock s_inodes list

From: Dave Chinner
Date: Wed Sep 29 2010 - 08:22:35 EST


From: Nick Piggin <npiggin@xxxxxxx>

To allow removal of the inode_lock, we first need to protect the
superblock inode list with it's own lock instead of using the
inode_lock for this purpose. Nest the new sb_inode_list_lock inside
the inode_lock around the list operations it needs to protect.
