Subject: [PATCH v2 0/2] A couple of i_dir_seq fixes for fs/dcache.c

Hi all,

This is version two of the patch I previously posted here:

  http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1518526731-26546-1-git-send-email-will.deacon@arm.com

Changes since v1:

  * Added READ_ONCE to i_dir_seq access
  * Added tags

Cheers,

Will

  fs: dcache: Avoid livelock between d_alloc_parallel and __d_add
  fs: dcache: Use READ_ONCE when accessing i_dir_seq
