Merge tag 'locks-v3.15-2' of git://git.samba.org/jlayton/linux
Pull file locking fixes from Jeff Layton:
"File locking related bugfixes for v3.15 (pile #2)
- fix for a long-standing bug in __break_lease that can cause soft
lockups
- renaming of file-private locks to "open file description" locks,
and the command macros to more visually distinct names
The fix for __break_lease is also in the pile of patches for which
Bruce sent a pull request, but I assume that your merge procedure will
handle that correctly.
For the other patches, I don't like the fact that we need to rename
this stuff at this late stage, but it should be settled now
(hopefully)"
* tag 'locks-v3.15-2' of git://git.samba.org/jlayton/linux:
locks: rename FL_FILE_PVT and IS_FILE_PVT to use "*_OFDLCK" instead
locks: rename file-private locks to "open file description locks"
locks: allow __break_lease to sleep even when break_time is 0
