From 30002ed2e41830ec03ec3e577ad83ac6b188f96e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nick Piggin Date: Fri, 25 Jul 2008 19:45:28 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] mm: readahead scan lockless radix_tree_next_hole() is implemented as a series of radix_tree_lookup()s. So it can be called locklessly, under rcu_read_lock(). Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin Cc: Benjamin Herrenschmidt Cc: Paul Mackerras Cc: Hugh Dickins Cc: "Paul E.
