[PATCH v2 0/4] dax/bus.c: Fixups for dax-bus locking
Posted by Vishal Verma 2 weeks, 1 day ago
Commit Fixes: c05ae9d85b47 ("dax/bus.c: replace driver-core lock usage by a local rwsem")
introduced a few problems that this series aims to fix. Add back
device_lock() where it was correctly used (during device manipulation
operations), remove conditional locking in unregister_dax_dev() and
unregister_dax_mapping(), use non-interruptible versions of rwsem
locks when not called from a user process, and fix up a write vs.
read usage of an rwsem.
