commit df2c0cb7f8 upstream.
They both say that the snap_rwsem must be held for write, but I don't
see any real reason for it, and it's not currently always called that
way.
The lookup is just walking the rbtree, so holding it for read should be
fine there. The "get" is bumping the refcount and (possibly) removing
it from the empty list. I see no need to hold the snap_rwsem for write
for that.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
