New Revision: 255797
URL: http://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/255797

Log:
  Increase the chance of the buffer write from the bufdaemon helper
  context to succeed.  If the locked vnode which owns the buffer to be
  written is shared locked, try the non-blocking upgrade of the lock to
  exclusive.
