Subject: - iget-stop-ext4-from-using-iget-and-read_inode-try.patch removed from -mm tree


The patch titled
     iget: stop EXT4 from using iget() and read_inode()
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     iget-stop-ext4-from-using-iget-and-read_inode-try.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/

------------------------------------------------------
Subject: iget: stop EXT4 from using iget() and read_inode()
From: David Howells <dhowells@...hat.com>

Stop the EXT4 filesystem from using iget() and read_inode().  Replace
ext4_read_inode() with ext4_iget(), and call that instead of iget(). 
ext4_iget() then uses iget_locked() directly and returns a proper error code
instead of an inode in the event of an error.

ext4_fill_super() returns any error incurred when getting the root inode
instead of EINVAL.
