<id>d3add1a9519dcacd6e644ecac741c56cf18b67f5</id>
<content type='text'>
When a file is opened for writing, the vfs code (do_dentry_open)
calls get_write_access for the inode, thus incrementing the inode's write
count. That writer normally then creates a multi-block reservation for
the inode (i_res) that can be re-used by other writers, which speeds up
writes for applications that stupidly loop on open/write/close.
When the writes are all done, the multi-block reservation should be
deleted when the file is closed by the last "writer."

Commit 0ec9b9ea4f83 broke that concept when it moved the call to
gfs2_rs_delete before the check for FMODE_WRITE.  Non-writers have no
business removing the multi-block reservations of writers. In fact, if
someone opens and closes the file for RO while a writer has a
multi-block reservation, the RO closer will delete the reservation
midway through the write, and this results in:

kernel BUG at fs/gfs2/rgrp.c:677! (or thereabouts) which is:
BUG_ON(rs-&gt;rs_requested); from function gfs2_rs_deltree.

This patch moves the check back inside the check for FMODE_WRITE.

It turns out that the might_sleep() call that commit 660a6126f8c3 adds
is triggering occasional data corruption in testing.  We're not sure
about the root cause yet, but since this commit was added as a debugging
aid only, revert it for now.

This reverts commit 660a6126f8c3208f6df8d552039cda078a8426d1.

Before this patch, glock dumps would not dump the gl_object for iopen
glocks. This information can help us debug problems related to eviction:
when AN iopen glock is blocked we can see the status of its underlying
inode and its flags, etc.

Function rgrp_go_inval calls gfs2_rgrp_brelse to invalidate the
in-core rgrp structures. After the call it set GLF_INSTANTIATE_NEEDED,
which is redundant, since gfs2_rgrp_brelse also sets it.
This patch simply removes the redundant set_bit.
