Subject: [PATCH 4/8] mm: drop mmap_sem for swap read IO submission
Date: Tue, 25 Sep 2018 11:30:07 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180925153011.15311-5-josef@toxicpanda.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180925153011.15311-1-josef@toxicpanda.com>

From: Johannes Weiner <jweiner@fb.com>

We don't need to hold the mmap_sem while we're doing the IO, simply drop
it and retry appropriately.
