Linux kernel source tree
e079d7c4db
The recent move of the bdev_statx call to the low-level vfs_getattr_nosec
helper caused it being used by devtmpfs, which leads to deadlocks in
md teardown due to the block device lookup and put interfering with the
unusual lifetime rules in md.
But as handle_remove only works on inodes created and owned by devtmpfs
itself there is no need to use vfs_getattr_nosec vs simply reading the
mode from the inode directly. Switch to that to avoid the bdev lookup
or any other unintentional side effect.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
