From 2d8dd38a5aa0cc2490bbad9b75e77fa154e1d145 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: OGAWA Hirofumi Date: Thu, 6 Aug 2009 15:07:39 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] vfs: mnt_want_write_file(): fix special file handling I suspect that mnt_want_write_file() may have wrong assumption. I think mnt_want_write_file() is assuming it increments ->mnt_writers if (file->f_mode & FMODE_WRITE). But, if it's special_file(), it is false?
