From 9843b76aae80293f5b5a0e275360627508595ce5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christoph Hellwig Date: Sun, 24 Oct 2010 19:40:46 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] fs: skip I_FREEING inodes in writeback_sb_inodes Skip I_FREEING inodes just like I_WILL_FREE and I_NEW when walking the writeback lists. Currenly this can't happen, but once we move from inode_lock to more fine grained locking we can have an inode that's still on the writeback lists but has I_FREEING set, and we absolutely need to skip it here, just like we do for all other inode list walks. Based on a patch from Dave Chinner.
