Subject: [PATCH v4 03/48] mm: shrinker: remove redundant shrinker_rwsem in debugfs operations
Date:   Mon,  7 Aug 2023 19:08:51 +0800
Message-Id: <20230807110936.21819-4-zhengqi.arch@bytedance.com>
In-Reply-To: <20230807110936.21819-1-zhengqi.arch@bytedance.com>
References: <20230807110936.21819-1-zhengqi.arch@bytedance.com>

Precedence: bulk

The debugfs_remove_recursive() will wait for debugfs_file_put() to return,
so the shrinker will not be freed when doing debugfs operations (such as
shrinker_debugfs_count_show() and shrinker_debugfs_scan_write()), so there
is no need to hold shrinker_rwsem during debugfs operations.
