The reiserfs write lock replaced the BKL and uses similar semantics. Frederic's locking code makes a distinction between when the lock is nested and when it's being acquired/released, but I don't think that's the right distinction to make. The right distinction is between the lock being released at end-of-use and the lock being released for a schedule. The unlock should return the depth and the lock should restore it, rather than the other way around as it is now. This patch implements that and adds a number of places where the lock should be dropped. Signed-off-by: Jeff Mahoney <jeffm@suse.com>

/*
 | 
						|
 * The previous reiserfs locking scheme was heavily based on
 | 
						|
 * the tricky properties of the Bkl:
 | 
						|
 *
 | 
						|
 * - it was acquired recursively by a same task
 | 
						|
 * - the performances relied on the release-while-schedule() property
 | 
						|
 *
 | 
						|
 * Now that we replace it by a mutex, we still want to keep the same
 | 
						|
 * recursive property to avoid big changes in the code structure.
 | 
						|
 * We use our own lock_owner here because the owner field on a mutex
 | 
						|
 * is only available in SMP or mutex debugging, also we only need this field
 | 
						|
 * for this mutex, no need for a system wide mutex facility.
 | 
						|
 *
 | 
						|
 * Also this lock is often released before a call that could block because
 | 
						|
 * reiserfs performances were partially based on the release while schedule()
 | 
						|
 * property of the Bkl.
