From 81a33c1ee941c3bb9ffc6bac8f676be13351344e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Amir Goldstein Date: Thu, 18 Jun 2020 18:43:53 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] ovl: fix unneeded call to ovl_change_flags() The check if user has changed the overlay file was wrong, causing unneeded call to ovl_change_flags() including taking f_lock on every file access.
