Date: Wed, 25 Apr 2012 14:44:05 +0200 From: Miklos Szeredi <miklos@...redi.hu> To: viro@...IV.linux.org.uk Cc: linux-fsdevel@...r.kernel.org, linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, hch@...radead.org, torvalds@...ux-foundation.org, mszeredi@...e.cz Subject: [PATCH 04/16] vfs: do_last(): use inode variable From: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@...e.cz> Use helper variable instead of path->dentry->d_inode before complete_walk(). This will allow this code to be used in RCU mode.
