[Ocfs2-devel] [PATCH 1/1] ocfs2: use spinlock irqsave for downconvert lock.patch

[Srinivas Eeda]

When ocfs2dc thread holds dc_task_lock spinlock and receives soft IRQ it
deadlock itself trying to get same spinlock in ocfs2_wake_downconvert_thread.
Below is the stack snippet.

The patch disables interrupts when acquiring dc_task_lock spinlock.

	ocfs2_wake_downconvert_thread
	ocfs2_rw_unlock
	ocfs2_dio_end_io
	dio_complete
	.....
	bio_endio
	req_bio_endio
	....
	scsi_io_completion
	blk_done_softirq
	__do_softirq
	do_softirq
	irq_exit
	do_IRQ
	ocfs2_downconvert_thread
	[kthread]
