    [PATCH] lockdep: annotate sunrpc code · c6573c29
    Arjan van de Ven 提交于
    Add i_mutex ordering annotations to the sunrpc rpc_pipe code.  This code has 3
    levels of i_mutex hierarchy in some cases: parent dir, client dir and file
    inside client dir; the i_mutex ordering is I_MUTEX_PARENT -> I_MUTEX_CHILD ->
    I_MUTEX_NORMAL
    
    This patch applies this ordering annotation to the various functions.  This is
    in line with the VFS expected ordering where it is always OK to lock a child
    after locking a parent; the sunrpc code is very diligent in doing this
    correctly.
    
    Has no effect on non-lockdep kernels.
