Jan, something seems busted here. I'm getting lockups when testing udf
on a single cpu with this last patch in place...
I think it's the BKL stumbling on itself.
for example...
static int udf_symlink(struct inode * dir, struct dentry * dentry, const
char * symname)
{
...
lock_kernel();
...
out:
unlock_kernel();
return err;
out_no_entry:
inode_dec_link_count(inode);
iput(inode);
goto out;
}
but iput goes
iput->iput_final->drop_inode->udf_drop_inode->lock_kernel() again
looking for the right way around it but figured I'd ping you early :)
