Subject: [PATCH 0/2] exofs: Double page_unlock BUG in write_begin/write_end

Testing at Bakeathon, I got a page_unlock BUG_ON triggered.
I've found a very old bug, back from the days of the empire.
It is time related and it only triggers since couple of
rc-releases.

The first patch is the bug fix and I'd want to push it to Linus
for this version. If it's already to late I'll get it to the
merge window with a CC for stable.

The second patch is a cleanup that opened up do to the new
variable introduced in the bugfix above. Which I'll push for
the next release.

[PATCH 1/2] exofs: Fix double page_unlock BUG in write_begin/end
[PATCH 2/2] exofs: Cleaup read path in regard with read_for_write

Thanks
Boaz
