Subject: [PATCH 2/2] fs: nfs: dir.c: Fix sparse error
Date:   Fri,  6 Dec 2019 20:46:40 +0530
Message-Id: <20191206151640.10966-1-madhuparnabhowmik04@gmail.com>
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

From: Madhuparna Bhowmik <madhuparnabhowmik04@gmail.com>

This patch fixes the following errors:
fs/nfs/dir.c:2353:14: error: incompatible types in comparison expression (different address spaces):
fs/nfs/dir.c:2353:14:    struct list_head [noderef] <asn:4> *
fs/nfs/dir.c:2353:14:    struct list_head *

caused due to directly accessing the prev pointer of
a RCU protected list.
Accessing the pointer using the macro list_prev_rcu() fixes this error.
