[PATCH 2/4] NTFS: Change ntfs_cluster_free() to require a writelocked runlist on entry

From: Anton Altaparmakov
Date: Mon Sep 26 2005 - 08:33:31 EST


NTFS: Change ntfs_cluster_free() to require a write locked runlist on entry
since we otherwise get into a lock reversal deadlock if a read locked
runlist is passed in. In the process also change it to take an ntfs
inode instead of a vfs inode as parameter.

2.1.24 - Lots of bug fixes and support more clean journal states.
