From: Valerie Aurora <redacted> The name of vfs_check_frozen() tends to de-emphasize an important fact: that it will block until the file system thaws to the specified level. Make bugs slightly less likely by renaming to vfs_block_until_thawed().I really hate that name. The old one wasn't perfect either, but unless you have a really good new one I'm strongly in favour of not repainting the bikeshed.
Maybe vfs_wait_frozen()? Honza -- Jan Kara [off-list ref] SUSE Labs, CR
