From 75d5cfbe4b78cc26af7b042e23f61700b50bc294 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Steven Whitehouse Date: Wed, 19 Jan 2011 09:42:40 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] GFS2: Post-VFS scale update for RCU path walk We can allow a few more cases to use RCU path walking than originally allowed. It should be possible to also enable RCU path walking when the glock is already cached. Thats a bit more complicated though, so left for a future patch.
