Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 6.11 065/244] vfs: use RCU in ilookup
From: Mateusz Guzik <mjguzik@...il.com>
[ Upstream commit 122381a46954ad592ee93d7da2bef5074b396247 ]
A soft lockup in ilookup was reported when stress-testing a 512-way
system [1] (see [2] for full context) and it was verified that not
taking the lock shifts issues back to mm.
