From 80503185989b2dd84170bb842e23d3fd45ebdf40 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Frederic Weisbecker Date: Tue, 25 Aug 2009 04:18:06 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] kill-the-bkl/reiserfs: panic in case of lock imbalance Until now, trying to unlock the reiserfs write lock whereas the current task doesn't hold it lead to a simple warning. We should actually warn and panic in this case to avoid the user datas to reach an unstable state.
