Also bd_mount_sem could be removed that way by checking for BD_FREEZE_OP in the unmount path. > /* > + * ioctl_freeze - Freeze the filesystem. > + * > + * @filp: target file > + * > + * Call freeze_bdev() to freeze the filesystem. > + */ This is not a kerneldoc comment. But I think it can be simply removed anyway, as it's a quite trivial function with static scope. > +/* > + * ioctl_thaw - Thaw the filesystem. > + * > + * @filp: target file > + * > + * Call thaw_bdev() to thaw the filesystem. > + */ Same here. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
