    ext4: fix locking for O_APPEND writes · f5ccfe1d
    Theodore Ts'o 提交于
    Al Viro pointed out that locking for O_APPEND writes was problematic,
    since the location of the write isn't known until after we take the
    i_mutex, which impacts the ext4_unaligned_aio() and s_bitmap_maxbytes
    check.
    
    For O_APPEND always assume that the write is unaligned so call
    ext4_unwritten_wait().  And to solve the second problem, take the
    i_mutex earlier before we start the s_bitmap_maxbytes check.
