Subject: [PATCH 12/35] fallthru: Basic fallthru definitions
Date: Thu, 15 Apr 2010 16:04:19 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1271372682-21225-13-git-send-email-vaurora@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1271372682-21225-12-git-send-email-vaurora@redhat.com>
Define the fallthru dcache flag and file system op. Mask out the
DCACHE_FALLTHRU flag on dentry creation. Actual users and changes to
lookup come in later patches.
Signed-off-by: Valerie Aurora <vaurora@redhat.com>
