Subject: [PATCH 4/9] mm: drop mmap_sem for swap read IO submission
Date: Wed, 26 Sep 2018 17:08:51 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180926210856.7895-5-josef@toxicpanda.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180926210856.7895-1-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.
