Subject: [PATCH 09/12] inode: remove iprune_sem
Date: Thu,  2 Jun 2011 17:01:04 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1306998067-27659-10-git-send-email-david@fromorbit.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1306998067-27659-1-git-send-email-david@fromorbit.com>

From: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com>

Now that we have per-sb shrinkers and they are unregistered before
evict_inode() is called, there is not longer any race condition for
the iprune_sem to protect against. Hence we can remove it.
