[PATCH 5.14 105/432] NFSv4/pNFS: Always allow update of a zero valued layout barrier

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Thu Sep 16 2021 - 13:21:00 EST


From: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 45baadaad7bf9183651fb74f4ed1200da48505a5 ]

A zero value for the layout barrier indicates that it has been cleared
(since seqid '0' is an illegal value), so we should always allow it to
be updated.
