[PATCH RT 19/22] f2fs: Mutex cant be used by down_write_nest_lock()

From: Steven Rostedt
Date: Wed Mar 02 2016 - 10:11:50 EST


4.1.15-rt18-rc1 stable review patch.
If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Yang Shi <yang.shi@xxxxxxxxxx>

fsf2_lock_all() calls down_write_nest_lock() to acquire a rw_sem and check
a mutex, but down_write_nest_lock() is designed for two rw_sem accoring to the
comment in include/linux/rwsem.h. And, other than f2fs, it is just called in
mm/mmap.c with two rwsem.

So, it looks it is used wrongly by f2fs. And, it causes the below compile
warning on -rt kernel too.

In file included from fs/f2fs/xattr.c:25:0:
fs/f2fs/f2fs.h: In function 'f2fs_lock_all':
fs/f2fs/f2fs.h:962:34: warning: passing argument 2 of 'down_write_nest_lock' from
incompatible pointer type [-Wincompatible-pointer-types]
f2fs_down_write(&sbi->cp_rwsem, &sbi->cp_mutex);
^

The nest annotation was anyway bogus as nested annotations for lockdep are
only required if one nests two locks of the same lock class, which is not the
case here.
