Subject: next-20080808 fs/nfsctl.c build error


I got the following build error on next-20080808:

fs/nfsctl.c: In function ‘do_open’:
fs/nfsctl.c:45: error: implicit declaration of function ‘current_cred’
fs/nfsctl.c:45: warning: passing argument 4 of ‘dentry_open’ makes pointer from integer without a cast
make[1]: *** [fs/nfsctl.o] Error 1
make: *** [fs/nfsctl.o] Error 2


.config attached.

    CRED: Pass credentials through dentry_open()

    Pass credentials through dentry_open() so that the COW creds patch can have
    SELinux's flush_unauthorized_files() pass the appropriate creds back to itself
    when it opens its null chardev.

    The security_dentry_open() call also now takes a creds pointer, as does the
    dentry_open hook in struct security_operations.
