Ratna Manoj Bolla abbbdf1249 nbd: replace kill_bdev() with __invalidate_device()
When a filesystem is mounted on a nbd device and on a disconnect, because
of kill_bdev(), and resetting bdev size to zero, buffer_head mappings are
getting destroyed under mounted filesystem.

After a bdev size reset(i.e bdev->bd_inode->i_size = 0) on a disconnect,
followed by a sys_umount(),
        generic_shutdown_super()->...
        ->__sync_blockdev()->...
        -blkdev_writepages()->...
        ->do_invalidatepage()->...
        -discard_buffer()   is discarding superblock buffer_head assumed
to be in mapped state by ext4_commit_super().

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
