Thanks, NeilBrown From: NeilBrown Date: Mon, 2 Feb 2015 17:08:03 +1100 Subject: [PATCH] md/bitmap: fix a might_sleep() warning. commit 8eb23b9f35aae413140d3fda766a98092c21e9b0 sched: Debug nested sleeps causes false-positive warnings in RAID5 code. This annotation removes them and adds a comment explaining why there is no real problem.
