Subject: [PATCH 5/5] binderfs: drop lock in binderfs_binder_ctl_create
Date: Fri, 18 Jan 2019 15:53:44 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190118145344.11532-6-christian@brauner.io> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190118145344.11532-1-christian@brauner.io>

The binderfs_binder_ctl_create() call is a no-op on subsequent calls and
the first call is done before we unlock the suberblock. Hence, there is no
need to take inode_lock() in there. Let's remove it.

Suggested-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

Note, that fs/devptfs/inode.c:mknod_ptmx() is currently holding
inode_lock() too under the exact same circumstances. Seems that we can drop
it from there too.
