[Ocfs2-devel] [PATCH] ocfs2: Fix sleep-with-spinlock recovery regression

[Mark Fasheh]

This fixes a bug introduced with 539d8264093560b917ee3afe4c7f74e5da09d6a5:
    [PATCH 2/2] ocfs2: Fix race between mount and recovery

ocfs2_mark_dead_nodes() was reading journal inodes while holding the
spinlock protecting our in-memory recovery state. The fix is very simple -
the disk state is protected by a cluster lock that's already held, so we
just move the spinlock down past the read.
