Marie Hornickova 2016-06-09 07:38:03 UTC Doc Text Cause: merge of RHEL updates failed to remove extra spin_lock operation in fscache_invalidate_write()

Consequence: potential deadlock when looping through cache pages

Fix: update code and remove extra lock operation

Result: no potential deadlock
In a previous code update one extra spin_lock operation was left untouched. Consequently, a deadlock could occur when looping through cache pages. With this update, the extra lock operation has been removed from the source code and the deadlock no longer occurs in the described situation.
