Jeff Layton 0ae3fa4dc1 cifs: remove superfluous inode_lock in cifs_{strict_}fsync
Originally, filemap_write_and_wait took the i_mutex internally, but
commit 02c24a8218 pushed the mutex acquisition into the individual
fsync routines, leaving it up to the subsystem maintainers to remove
it if it wasn't needed.

For cifs, I see no reason to take the inode_lock here. All of the
operations inside that lock are protected in other ways.

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.
