H A D | write.c | b5748643 Mon Aug 20 05:05:29 CDT 2007 David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org> JFFS2 locking regression fix.
Commit a491486a2087ac3dfc00efb4f838c8d684afaf54 introduced a locking problem in JFFS2 -- we up() the alloc_sem when we weren't previously holding it. This leads to all kinds of fun behaviour later.
There was a _reason_ for the if (1 /* alternative path needs testing */ || which the above-mentioned commit removed :)
