[PATCH] dm: noflush resizing (1/3) Add bdlookup()

From: Jun'ichi Nomura
Date: Wed Oct 24 2007 - 17:25:56 EST


This patch adds bdlookup() and bdlookup_disk().
They are lookup-only variant of bdget()/bdget_disk().

The function can be used when
- the caller wants to get bdev only if somebody already got it
(i.e. there is already bd_inode allocated in memory)
- the race between bdlookup() and bdget() is acceptable

The patch is a preparation for the 2nd part of this patchset.

Background:
inode is initialized with I_LOCK and I_NEW turned on.
After initialization, both flags are turned off.

bdget() uses iget5_locked(), which waits until I_LOCK is removed.
It could take so long or forever.
