Subject: [PATCH 1/1] backing-dev: refactor wb_congested_put()
Date: Thu, 12 Mar 2020 00:21:56 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200312002156.49023-2-jbi.octave@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200312002156.49023-1-jbi.octave@gmail.com>

wb_congested_put() was written in such a way that made it difficult
	for Sparse tool not to complain
Expanding the function locking block in the if statement improves on
the readability of the code. Rewritting it  comes with one add-on:

It fixes a warning reported by Sparse tool at wb_congested_put()

warning: context imbalance in wb_congested_put() - unexpected unlock

Refactor the function wb_congested_put()
