Subject: libceph: no more kick_requests() race
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=92451b4910895936cc05ce1d283644ffc44d7537;p=linux-beck.git

libceph: no more kick_requests() race

Since we no longer drop the request mutex between registering and
mapping an osd request in ceph_osdc_start_request(), there is no
chance of a race with kick_requests().

We can now therefore map and send the new request unconditionally
(but we'll issue a warning should it ever occur).
