  Why did you remove the __find_get_block() call? That looks like a bug.
  I'm not sure if you didn't miss this comment....
I'm sorry I missed it.
I think calling __find_get_block() in __getblk_gfp() can replace it.
I'm not sure about it.

If anybody disagree with it, I'll change it as the original code.
  OK, I see. Thanks for explanation. I agree we can remove
__find_get_block() from __getblk() but please make this change a separate
patch and also please put the might_sleep() check __getblk_gfp().
