Subject: ext4: Take read lock during overwrite case.
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.25-rc1~1166^2~19
X-Git-Url: http://www.pilppa.org/gitweb/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=4df3d265bf8f3762e1d77f554ee279c39dedb020;p=linux-2.6-omap-h63xx.git

ext4: Take read lock during overwrite case.

When we are overwriting a file and not actually allocating new file system
blocks we need to take only the read lock on i_data_sem.
