[PATCH] gfs2: Stop using rhashtable_walk_peek

From: Andreas Gruenbacher
Date: Wed Mar 28 2018 - 12:00:20 EST


Function rhashtable_walk_peek is problematic because there is no
guarantee that the glock previously returned still exists; when that key
is deleted, rhashtable_walk_peek can end up returning a different key,
which would cause an inconsistent glock dump. So instead of using
rhashtable_walk_peek, keep track of the current glock in the seq file
iterator functions.
