Subject: [PATCH] NFS:remove redundant call to nfs_do_access
Date:   Fri, 28 Feb 2020 10:14:07 +0000
Message-Id: <1582884847-20447-1-git-send-email-zhouzhouyi@gmail.com>
Sender: linux-nfs-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

Also the rcu_read_lock and rcu_read_unlock is unnessarry because rcu
critical data structure is already protected in 
nfs_access_get_cached_rcu.  

Tested in x86_64
