>From e12c861e687364ff5a891f0ae90283b384d74197 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jan Kara Date: Wed, 6 Nov 2019 15:30:26 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] mm: Don't bother dropping mmap_sem for zero size readahead When handling a page fault, we drop mmap_sem to start async readahead so that we don't block on IO submission with mmap_sem held. However there's no point to drop mmap_sem in case readahead is disabled. Handle that case to avoid pointless dropping of mmap_sem and retrying the fault.
