From 2dcba4781fa3842e28f47ab23056d58cd283fca6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jan Kara Date: Mon, 7 Dec 2015 15:04:57 -0500 Subject: ext4: get rid of EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_NO_LOCK flag When dioread_nolock mode is enabled, we grab i_data_sem in ext4_ext_direct_IO() and therefore we need to instruct _ext4_get_block() not to grab i_data_sem again using EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_NO_LOCK. However holding i_data_sem over overwrite direct IO isn't needed these days. We have exclusion against truncate / hole punching because we increase i_dio_count under i_mutex in ext4_ext_direct_IO() so once ext4_file_write_iter() verifies blocks are allocated & written, they are guaranteed to stay so during the whole direct IO even after we drop i_mutex. So we can just remove this locking abuse and the no longer necessary EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_NO_LOCK flag.
