From 18e4cf915543257eae2925671934937163f5639b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: NeilBrown Date: Mon, 31 Jul 2023 16:48:31 +1000 Subject: [PATCH] nfsd: Simplify code around svc_exit_thread() call in nfsd() Previously a thread could exit asynchronously (due to a signal) so some care was needed to hold nfsd_mutex over the last svc_put() call. Now a thread can only exit when svc_set_num_threads() is called, and this is always called under nfsd_mutex. So no care is needed. Not only is the mutex held when a thread exits now, but the svc refcount is elevated, so the svc_put() in svc_exit_thread() will never be a final put, so the mutex isn't even needed at this point in the code.
