From 4fadd7bb20a1e7c774ed88dc703d8fbcd00ff917 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christoph Hellwig Date: Mon, 3 Aug 2009 23:28:06 +0200 Subject: freeze_bdev: kill bd_mount_sem Now that we have the freeze count there is not much reason for bd_mount_sem anymore. The actual freeze/thaw operations are serialized using the bd_fsfreeze_mutex, and the only other place we take bd_mount_sem is get_sb_bdev which tries to prevent mounting a filesystem while the block device is frozen. Instead of add a check for bd_fsfreeze_count and return -EBUSY if a filesystem is frozen. While that is a change in user visible behaviour a failing mount is much better for this case rather than having the mount process stuck uninterruptible for a long time.
