While the spinlock does not cause problems, using the mutex is more correct and consistent with others. The global status of balance is eg. checked from btrfs_pause_balance or btrfs_cancel_balance with mutex. Resuming balance happens during mount or ro->rw remount. In the former case, no other user of the balance_ctl exists, in the latter, balance cannot run until the ro/rw transition is finished. Signed-off-by: David Sterba <[email protected]>
