From a0e265bc78010d2d831a968d4cea3c40a0efac8b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Trond Myklebust Date: Mon, 17 Jul 2017 10:29:32 -0400 Subject: NFS: Fix an ABBA issue in nfs_lock_and_join_requests() All other callers of nfs_page_group_lock() appear to already hold the page lock on the head page, so doing it in the opposite order here is inefficient, although not deadlock prone since we roll back all locks on contention.
