+Subject: [PATCH 090/191] fs/dcache: disable preemption on i_dir_seq's write
+ side
+
+i_dir_seq is an opencoded seqcounter. Based on the code it looks like we
+could have two writers in parallel despite the fact that the d_lock is
+held. The problem is that during the write process on RT the preemption
+is still enabled and if this process is interrupted by a reader with RT
+priority then we lock up.
+To avoid that lock up I am disabling the preemption during the update.
+The rename of i_dir_seq is here to ensure to catch new write sides in
+future.
