From ed0360bbab72b829437b67ebb2f9cfac19f59dfe Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Amir Goldstein Date: Thu, 17 Aug 2023 17:13:33 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] fs: create kiocb_{start,end}_write() helpers aio, io_uring, cachefiles and overlayfs, all open code an ugly variant of file_{start,end}_write() to silence lockdep warnings. Create helpers for this lockdep dance so we can use the helpers in all the callers.
