Subject: Re: [PATCH v8 00/10] kernfs: Remove reference counting for
 kernfs_open_node.

Hello, Imran.

I took a look to patch 5 and it looks like there's still some work left to
do. Maybe it'd be easier to concentrate on the first two parts - the notify
list conversion and open_file_mutex conversion first and then get to the
rest later?

Thanks.
