From 3943b040f11ed0cc6d4585fd286a623ca8634547 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Shan Hai Date: Thu, 23 Aug 2018 02:02:56 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] bcache: release dc->writeback_lock properly in bch_writeback_thread() The writeback thread would exit with a lock held when the cache device is detached via sysfs interface, fix it by releasing the held lock before exiting the while-loop.
