From 3b9d4ed26680771295d904a6b83e88e620780893 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Theodore Ts'o Date: Sat, 25 Apr 2009 22:54:04 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] ext4: Replace lock/unlock_super() with an explicit lock for the orphan list Use a separate lock to protect the orphan list, so we can stop overloading the use of lock_super().
