wake up s_wait_unfrozen when ->freeze_fs fails
dd slept infinitely when fsfeeze failed because of EIO. To fix this problem, if ->freeze_fs fails, freeze_super() wakes up the tasks waiting for the filesystem to become unfrozen. When s_frozen isn't SB_UNFROZEN in __generic_file_aio_write(), the function sleeps until FITHAW ioctl wakes up s_wait_unfrozen. However, if ->freeze_fs fails, s_frozen is set to SB_UNFROZEN and then freeze_super() returns an error number. In this case, FITHAW ioctl returns EINVAL because s_frozen is already SB_UNFROZEN. There is no way to wake up s_wait_unfrozen, so __generic_file_aio_write() sleeps infinitely. Signed-off-by: Kazuya Mio <k-mio@sx.jp.nec.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
