From 97a894136f29802da19a15541de3c019e1ca147e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Zijlstra Date: Tue, 24 May 2011 17:12:04 -0700 Subject: mm: Remove i_mmap_lock lockbreak Hugh says: "The only significant loser, I think, would be page reclaim (when concurrent with truncation): could spin for a long time waiting for the i_mmap_mutex it expects would soon be dropped? " Counter points: - cpu contention makes the spin stop (need_resched()) - zap pages should be freeing pages at a higher rate than reclaim ever can I think the simplification of the truncate code is definitely worth it. Effectively reverts: 2aa15890f3c ("mm: prevent concurrent unmap_mapping_range() on the same inode") and takes out the code that caused its problem.
