+Subject: ocfs2: Fix lock inversion in ocfs2_local_read_info()
+Patch-mainline: 2.6.31
+
+This function is called with dqio_mutex held but it has to acquire lock
+from global quota file which ranks above this lock. This is not deadlockable
+lock inversion since this code path is take only during mount when noone
+else can race with us but let's clean this up to silence lockdep.
+
+We just drop the dqio_mutex in the beginning of the function and reacquire
+it in the end since we don't need it - noone can race with us at this moment.
