ollision. However, now that random numbers are used instead, collisions are much more likely. This is fixed by finding a hole in the rbtree where the next unused serial number ought to be and using that by going almost back to the top of the insertion routine and redoing the insertion with the new serial number rather than trying to be clever and attempting to work out the insertion point pointer directly. This fixes kernel BZ #7727. Signed-off-by: David Howells Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds m
