X-Git-Tag: v4.14-rc1~900^2~5
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=fb26a1cbed8c90025572d48bc9eabe59f7571e88;p=platform%2Fkernel%2Flinux-rpi.git

ext4: return to starting transaction in ext4_dax_huge_fault()

DAX will return to locking exceptional entry before mapping blocks for a
page fault to fix possible races with concurrent writes.  To avoid lock
inversion between exceptional entry lock and transaction start, start
the transaction already in ext4_dax_huge_fault().
