From 49ef8832fb1a9e0da0020eb17480fd286433bc13 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christian Brauner Date: Wed, 27 Sep 2023 15:21:16 +0200 Subject: bdev: implement freeze and thaw holder operations The old method of implementing block device freeze and thaw operations required us to rely on get_active_super() to walk the list of all superblocks on the system to find any superblock that might use the block device. This is wasteful and not very pleasant overall. Now that we can finally go straight from block device to owning superblock things become way simpler.
