H A Daops.hdiff c18ceab01240fd4c354b78d877571b729908e4a3 Thu Apr 03 23:46:46 CEST 2014 Wengang Wang <wen.gang.wang@oracle.com> ocfs2: change ip_unaligned_aio to of type mutex from atomit_t

There is a problem that waitqueue_active() may check stale data thus miss
a wakeup of threads waiting on ip_unaligned_aio.

The valid value of ip_unaligned_aio is only 0 and 1 so we can change it to
be of type mutex thus the above prolem is avoid. Another benifit is that
mutex which works as FIFO is fairer than wake_up_all().
