[PATCH] convert ext3's truncate_sem to a mutex
ext3's truncate_sem is always released in the same function it's taken and it otherwise is a mutex as well.. Signed-off-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
