Subject: [PATCH 39/46] fs: d_revalidate_rcu for rcu-walk
Date: Sat, 27 Nov 2010 20:45:09 +1100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <6b7bb969c1c12e4462e7a9ebad98a205fa3496fd.1290852960.git.npiggin@kernel.dk> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1290852958.git.npiggin@kernel.dk>

This seems to be the best way to get filesystems aware of RCU walking
in their d_revalidate routines. Needs more documentation if it works
out OK.
