5 * The previous reiserfs locking scheme was heavily based on
6 * the tricky properties of the Bkl:
8 * - it was acquired recursively by a same task
9 * - the performances relied on the release-while-schedule() property
11 * Now that we replace it by a mutex, we still want to keep the same
12 * recursive property to avoid big changes in the code structure.
13 * We use our own lock_owner here because the owner field on a mutex
14 * is only available in SMP or mutex debugging, also we only need this field
15 * for this mutex, no need for a system wide mutex facility.
17 * Also this lock is often released before a call that could block because
18 * reiserfs performances were partially based on the release while schedule()
19 * property of the Bkl.
