So this is OK - we'll never take truncate_mutex against the blockdev mapping (it doesn't have one, for a start ;)) This is similar to the quite common case where we take inode A's i_mutex inside inode B's i_mutex, which needs special lockdep annotations. I think. I haven't looked into this in detail. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
