From 1a0d3786dd57dbd74f340322054c3d618b999dcf Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Theodore Ts'o Date: Wed, 5 Nov 2008 00:09:22 -0500 Subject: jbd2: Remove a large array of bh's from the stack of the checkpoint routine jbd2_log_do_checkpoint()n is one of the kernel's largest stack users. Move the array of buffer head's from the stack of jbd2_log_do_checkpoint() to the in-core journal structure.
