ext4: ext4_mark_recovery_complete() doesn't need to use lock_super
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The function ext4_mark_recovery_complete() is called from two call
paths: either (a) while mounting the filesystem, in which case there's
no danger of any other CPU calling write_super() until the mount is
completed, and (b) while remounting the filesystem read-write, in
which case the fs core has already locked the superblock.  This also
allows us to take out a very vile unlock_super()/lock_super() pair in
ext4_remount().
