Revision 38d78e587d4960d0db94add518d27ee74bad2301 authored by Vladimir Davydov on 22 March 2013, 22:04:51 UTC, committed by Linus Torvalds on 22 March 2013, 23:41:21 UTC
mnt_drop_write() must be called only if mnt_want_write() succeeded,
otherwise the mnt_writers counter will diverge.

mnt_writers counters are used to check if remounting FS as read-only is
OK, so after an extra mnt_drop_write() call, it would be impossible to
remount mqueue FS as read-only.  Besides, on umount a warning would be
printed like this one:

  =====================================

  a.out/12486 is trying to release lock (sb_writers) at:
  mnt_drop_write+0x1f/0x30
  but there are no more locks to release!
