Message-Id: <20150731194005.621625187@linuxfoundation.org> Date: Fri, 31 Jul 2015 12:39:29 -0700 From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...uxfoundation.org> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...uxfoundation.org>, stable@...r.kernel.org, Joe Thornber <ejt@...hat.com>, Mike Snitzer <snitzer@...hat.com> Subject: [PATCH 4.1 118/267] dm btree: silence lockdep lock inversion in dm_btree_del() 4.1-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Joe Thornber <ejt@...hat.com> commit 1c7518794a3647eb345d59ee52844e8a40405198 upstream. Allocate memory using GFP_NOIO when deleting a btree. dm_btree_del() can be called via an ioctl and we don't want to recurse into the FS or block layer.
