[PATCH 0/5] fsnotify: decouple mark lock and marks fsobject lock

From: Lino Sanfilippo
Date: Mon Feb 21 2011 - 12:37:49 EST


1. mark lock
2. inode/vfsmount lock

With these patches only one of both locks are taken at the same time, which
removes the need for a strict locking order.

These patches depend on patch "inotify: fix race when adding a new watch" sent to lkml
on Feb. 11.
