fat: work around race with userspace's read via blockdev while mounting
[ Upstream commit 07bfa4415ab607e459b69bd86aa7e7602ce10b4f ] If userspace reads the buffer via blockdev while mounting, sb_getblk()+modify can race with buffer read via blockdev. For example, FS userspace bh = sb_getblk() modify bh->b_data read ll_rw_block(bh) fill bh->b_data by on-disk data /* lost modified data by FS */ set_buffer_uptodate(bh) set_buffer_uptodate(bh) Userspace should not use the blockdev while mounting though, the udev seems to be already doing this. Although I think the udev should try to avoid this, workaround the race by small overhead.
