      ocfs2: clean up bh null checks · 2fe5c1d7
      Mark Fasheh authored
      If we know a buffer_head is non-null, then brelse() is unnecessary and
      put_bh() can be used instead. Also, an explicit check for NULL is
      unnecessary when using brelse(). This patch only covers buffer_head_io.c and
      resize.c, which have recently added code which exhibits this problem.

      ocfs2: document access rules for blocked_lock_list · 7ec373cf
      Mark Fasheh authored
      ocfs2_super->blocked_lock_list and ocfs2_super->blocked_lock_count have some
      usage restrictions which aren't immediately obvious to anyone reading the
      code. It's a good idea to document this so that we avoid making costly
      mistakes in the future.

      configfs: file.c fix possible recursive locking · 116ba5d5
      Joonwoo Park authored
      configfs_register_subsystem() with default_groups triggers recursive locking.
      it seems that mutex_lock_nested is needed.
      
      =============================================
      [ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ]
      2.6.24-rc6 #145
      ---------------------------------------------
      swapper/1 is trying to acquire lock:
       (&sb->s_type->i_mutex_key#3){--..}, at: [<c40c9a9e>] configfs_add_file+0x2e/0x70
      
      but task is already holding lock:
       (&sb->s_type->i_mutex_key#3){--..}, at: [<c40ca985>] configfs_register_subsystem+0x55/0x130
      
      other info that might help us debug this:
      1 lock held by swapper/1:
       #0:  (&sb->s_type->i_mutex_key#3){--..}, at: [<c40ca985>] configfs_register_subsystem+0x55/0x130
