From: Christoph Hellwig Date: Wed, 9 Jun 2010 13:31:01 +0000 (+0200) Subject: writeback: fix pin_sb_for_writeback X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=29cb48594b873f6193d6327097e504bd3e2314de;p=linux-beck.git writeback: fix pin_sb_for_writeback We need to check for s_instances to make sure we don't bother working against a filesystem that is beeing unmounted, and we need to call put_super to make sure a superblock is freed when we race against umount. Also no need to keep sb_lock after we got a reference on it.
