Linux kernel stable tree

For requests with non-fixed files, instead of grabbing just one reference, we get by the number of left requests, so the following requests using the same file can take it without atomics. However, it's not all win. If there is one request in the middle not using files or having a fixed file, we'll need to put back the left references. Even worse if an application submits requests dealing with different files, it will do a put for each new request, so doubling the number of atomics needed. Also, even if not used, it's still takes some cycles in the submission path. If a file used many times, it rather makes sense to pre-register it, if not, we may fall in the described pitfall. So, this optimisation is a matter of use case. Go with the simpliest code-wise way, remove it. Signed-off-by: Pavel Begunkov <asml.silence@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
