Subject: [PATCH 36/46] sysfs: use ilookup5() instead of ilookup5_nowait()
Date: Thu, 16 Oct 2008 10:10:37 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1224177047-11859-36-git-send-email-gregkh@suse.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20081016170954.GA11824@kroah.com>
From: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
As inode creation is protected by sysfs_mutex, ilookup5_nowait()
always either fails to find at all or finds one which is fully
initialized, so using ilookup5_nowait() or ilookup5() doesn't make any
difference. Switch to ilookup5() as it's planned to be removed. This
change also makes lookup return value handling a bit simpler.
This change was suggested by Al Viro.
