From 61d5eb2985b3b1d69fd53d7dc9789037c27f8d91 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Trond Myklebust Date: Thu, 13 May 2010 12:51:06 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] NFS: Don't run nfs_access_cache_shrinker() when the mask is GFP_NOFS Both iput() and put_rpccred() might allocate memory under certain circumstances, so make sure that we don't recurse and deadlock...
