    hugetlbfs: lockdep annotate root inode properly · 65ed7601
    Aneesh Kumar K.V authored
    This fixes the below reported false lockdep warning.  e096d0c7
    ("lockdep: Add helper function for dir vs file i_mutex annotation") added
    a similar annotation for every other inode in hugetlbfs but missed the
    root inode because it was allocated by a separate function.
    
    For HugeTLB fs we allow taking i_mutex in mmap.  HugeTLB fs doesn't
    support file write and its file read callback is modified in a05b0855
    
    
    ("hugetlbfs: avoid taking i_mutex from hugetlbfs_read()") to not take
    i_mutex.  Hence for HugeTLB fs with regular files we really don't take
    i_mutex with mmap_sem held.
