      [CIFS] Reduce chance of list corruption in find_writable_file · 9b22b0b7
      Steve French authored
      When find_writable_file is racing with close and the session
      to the server goes down, Shaggy noticed that there was a
      chance that an open file in the list of files off the inode
      could have been freed by close since cifs_reconnect can
      block (the spinlock thus not held). This means that
      we have to start over at the beginning of the list in some
      cases.
      
      There is a 2nd change that needs to be made later
      (pointed out by Jeremy Allison and Shaggy) in order to
      prevent cifs_close ever freeing the cifs per file info
      when a write is pending.  Although we delay close from
      freeing this memory for sufficiently long for all known
      cases, ultimately on a very, very slow write
      overlapping a close pending we need to allow close to return
      (without freeing the cifs file info) and defer freeing the
      memory to be the responsibility of the (sloooow) write
      thread (presumably have to look at every place wrtPending
      is decremented - and add a flag for deferred free for
      after wrtPending goes to zero).
