2008-11-05	[JFFS2] fix race condition in jffs2_lzo_compress()	Geert Uytterhoeven	1	-6/+9
	deflate_mutex protects the globals lzo_mem and lzo_compress_buf. However, jffs2_lzo_compress() unlocks deflate_mutex _before_ it has copied out the compressed data from lzo_compress_buf. Correct this by moving the mutex unlock after the copy. In addition, document what deflate_mutex actually protects.

2007-07-11	[JFFS2] Add LZO compression support.	Richard Purdie	1	-0/+108
	Add LZO1X compression/decompression support to jffs2. LZO's interface doesn't entirely match that required by jffs2 so a buffer and memcpy is unavoidable. Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <rpurdie@openedhand.com> Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>
