From Daniel Gryniewicz <dang(a)redhat.com&gt;: Daniel Gryniewicz has uploaded this change for review. ( https://review.gerrithub.io/411912 Change subject: MDCACHE - Close an unexport race ...................................................................... MDCACHE - Close an unexport race When unexporting, we have to remove the expmap between the export and it's entries. This involves updating first_export_id. However, lru_run_lane() uses this to get an export for ops. mdcache_unexport() takes a ref on the entry, so that lru_run_lane() will ignore it, but a normal ref doesn't take any locks, so it could update the ref *after* lru_run_lane() has decided do operate on the entry. To fix this, have mdcache_unexport() take an INITIAL ref, which takes the lane lock so it can move the entry toward MRU. This will close the race with lru_run_lane(), which holds the lane lock while getting the export.
