Subject: bdi: remove bdi->wb_lock locking around bdi->dev clearing in bdi_unregister()
X-Git-Tag: v4.14-rc1~6394^2~108
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b68757341d8015d28e261990deea58dd836e04da;p=platform%2Fkernel%2Flinux-rpi.git

bdi: remove bdi->wb_lock locking around bdi->dev clearing in bdi_unregister()

The only places where NULL test on bdi->dev is used are
bdi_[un]register().  The functions can't be called in parallel anyway
and there's no point in protecting bdi->dev clearing with a lock.
Remove bdi->wb_lock grabbing around bdi->dev clearing and move it
after device_unregister() call so that bdi->dev doesn't have to be
cached in a local variable.

This patch shouldn't introduce any behavior difference.
