From 4c5eface5d0e4eb7f77be346193c2850e7e3b983 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Frederic Weisbecker Date: Fri, 1 May 2009 01:44:57 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] kill-the-BKL/reiserfs: release the write lock inside reiserfs_read_bitmap_block() reiserfs_read_bitmap_block() uses sb_bread() to read the bitmap block. This helper might sleep. Then, when the bkl was used, it was released at this point. We can then relax the write lock too here.
