Subject: overlay: Call ovl_drop_write() earlier in ovl_dentry_open()
X-Git-Tag: firefly_0821_release~176^2~1459^2~28
X-Git-Url: http://demsky.eecs.uci.edu/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f25801ee4680ef1db21e15c112e6e5fe3ffe8da5;p=firefly-linux-kernel-4.4.55.git

overlay: Call ovl_drop_write() earlier in ovl_dentry_open()

Call ovl_drop_write() earlier in ovl_dentry_open() before we call vfs_open()
as we've done the copy up for which we needed the freeze-write lock by that
point.
