Here's a patch I worked up the other night that kills off struct file
completely from the xattr code. I've tested it locally.
After several posts and bug reports regarding interaction with the NULL
nameidata, here's a patch to clean up the mess with struct file in the
reiserfs xattr code.
As observed in several of the posts, there's really no need for struct file
to exist in the xattr code. It was really only passed around due to the
f_op->readdir() and a_ops->{prepare,commit}_write prototypes requiring it.
reiserfs_prepare_write() and reiserfs_commit_write() don't actually use
the struct file passed to it, and the xattr code uses a private version of
reiserfs_readdir() to enumerate the xattr directories.
I do have patches in my queue to convert the xattrs to use reiserfs_readdir(),
but I guess I'll just have to rework those.
This is pretty close to the patch by Dave Hansen for -mm, but I didn't
notice it until after I wrote this up.
