[Cluster-devel] GFS2: Pre-pull patch posting (merge window)

[Steven Whitehouse]

Hi,

There are a few bug fixes for various, mostly very minor corner
cases, plus some interesting new features. The new features
include atomic_open whose main benefit will be the reduction in
locking overhead in case of combined lookup/create and open operations,
sorting the log buffer lists by block number to improve the efficiency
of AIL writeback, and agressively issuing revokes in gfs2_log_flush
to reduce overhead when dropping glocks,

Steve.
