Date: Mon, 14 Jan 2008 12:45:18 +1100 From: NeilBrown <neilb@...e.de> To: Andrew Morton <akpm@...ux-foundation.org> Cc: "Dan Williams" <dan.j.williams@...il.com> Subject: [PATCH 000 of 6] md: various fixes for md Following are 6 patches for md which are suitable for 2.6.25-rc1. The first fixes a bug which could make it a candidate for 24-final. However it is a deadlock that seems to occur very rarely, and has been in mainline since 2.6.22. So letting it into one more release shouldn't be a big problem. While the fix is fairly simple, it could have some unexpected consequences, so I'd rather go for the next cycle. The second patch fixes a bug which only affect -mm at the moment but will probably affect 2.6.25 unless fixed. The rest are cleanups with no functional change (I hope). Thanks, NeilBrown [PATCH 001 of 6] md: Fix an occasional deadlock in raid5 [PATCH 002 of 6] md: Fix use-after-free bug when dropping an rdev from an md array.
