The d_lock was used in prepend_path() to protect dentry->d_name from
being changed under the hood. As the caller of prepend_path() has
to take the rename_lock before calling into it, there is no chance
that d_name will be changed. The d_lock lock is only needed when the
rename_lock is not taken.
The d_path() and related kernel functions currently take a writer
lock on rename_lock because they need to follow pointers. By changing
rename_lock to be the new sequence read/write lock, a reader lock
can be taken and multiple d_path() threads can proceed concurrently
without blocking each other.

Hey Linus,
I am hoping you can help out. I've a branch for 3.9 which has some
code that depends on the changes to the Xen hypervisor. The changes
to the Xen hypervisor are still in flux - aka they are not baked. The
code on the Linux side that uses this is marked with EXPERIMENTAL to
ward off
Hello, Linus.
This is cpuset changes for 3.9-rc1.
* Synchornization has seen a lot of changes with focus on decoupling
cpuset synchronization from cgroup internal locking. After this
change, there only remain a couple of mostly trivial dependencies on
cgroup_lock outside cgroup core

Hello,
Hit this WARNING once while fuzzing the kernel with trinity in a qemu
virtual machine as the root user.
Does this make any sense? I have occasionally seen some ATA related
troubles while fuzzing in a VM, but this warning is new to me.

Yes, for example you could have a custom ACPI

The "x86, AMD: Enable WC+ memory type on family 10 processors" patch
currently in -tip added a workaround for AMD F10h CPUs which #GPs my

which is not currently ignored by kvm. Do that because this MSR

The WC+ workaround for F10h introduces a new MSR and kvm host #GPs
on accesses to unknown MSRs if paravirt is not compiled in. Use the
exception-handling MSR accessors so as not to break 3.8 and later guests
booting on older hosts.

Hello, Linus.
These are cgroup changes for 3.9-rc1. Nothing too drastic.
* Removal of synchronize_rcu() from userland visible paths.
* Various fixes and cleanups from Li.
* cgroup_rightmost_descendant() added which will be used by cpuset
changes (it will be a separate pull request).
