From: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> To: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> Cc: linux-nvme@lists.infradead.org, linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Subject: fix queue_lock usage in blk-mq and nvme Date: Thu, 7 May 2015 09:38:12 +0200 [thread overview] Message-ID: <1430984294-25859-1-git-send-email-hch@lst.de> (raw) Historically we always take queue_lock with irqs disabled. Blk-mq doesn't really use the queue_lock much, but when it does it needs to follow this rules to make lockdep happy. The first patch removes a queue_lock usage instead of fixing things properly, and the second is a bad-aid for nvme. In the long run I'd prefer to remove other users of the queue_lock from blk-mq and blk-mq based driver entirely, but that will require a bit more work.
