From: David Howells Date: Tue, 30 Jul 2019 13:38:51 +0000 (+0100) Subject: afs: Only update d_fsdata if different in afs_d_revalidate() X-Git-Tag: v5.3-rc5~24^2~1 X-Git-Url: https://asedeno.scripts.mit.edu/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=5dc84855b0fc7e1db182b55c5564fd539d6eff92;p=linux.git afs: Only update d_fsdata if different in afs_d_revalidate() In the in-kernel afs filesystem, d_fsdata is set with the data version of the parent directory. afs_d_revalidate() will update this to the current directory version, but it shouldn't do this if it the value it read from d_fsdata is the same as no lock is held and cmpxchg() is not used. Fix the code to only change the value if it is different from the current directory version. Fixes: 260a980317da ("[AFS]: Add "directory write" support.")
