Subject: jbd2: minimize region locked by j_list_lock in journal_get_create_access()
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=6e4862a5bb9d12be87e4ea5d9a60836ebed71d28;p=linux-beck.git

jbd2: minimize region locked by j_list_lock in journal_get_create_access()

It's not needed until we start trying to modifying fields in the
journal_head which are protected by j_list_lock.
