2Subject: ocfs2: Fix lock inversion in ocfs2_local_read_info()
3Patch-mainline: 2.6.31
4
5This function is called with dqio_mutex held but it has to acquire lock
6from global quota file which ranks above this lock. This is not deadlockable
7lock inversion since this code path is take only during mount when noone
8else can race with us but let's clean this up to silence lockdep.
9
10We just drop the dqio_mutex in the beginning of the function and reacquire
11it in the end since we don't need it - noone can race with us at this moment.
