Subject[PATCH v2 4/4] fs/dcache: Protect negative dentry pruning from racing with umount
Date
The negative dentry pruning is done on a specific super_block set
in the ndblk.prune_sb variable. If the super_block is also being
un-mounted concurrently, the content of the super_block may no longer
be valid.

To protect against such racing condition, a new lock is added to
the ndblk structure to synchronize the negative dentry pruning and
umount operation. This is a regular spinlock as the pruning operation
can be quite time consuming.
