Subject: [PATCH 0/5] Refactor locking in inode_operations

Speed up work with dir lock.
Theoretically in successful cases those locks aren't needed at all.
But proving the same for error cases is difficult.
So instead of removing them we just move them.

Konstantin Komarov (5):
  fs/ntfs3: Move ni_lock_dir and ni_unlock into ntfs_create_inode
  fs/ntfs3: Refactor ntfs_get_acl_ex for better readability
  fs/ntfs3: Pass flags to ntfs_set_ea in ntfs_set_acl_ex
  fs/ntfs3: Change posix_acl_equiv_mode to posix_acl_update_mode
  fs/ntfs3: Refactoring lock in ntfs_init_acl
