Subject: [PATCH] initramfs: use vfs_stat/lstat directly
Date: Fri, 17 Jun 2016 22:10:06 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160617201021.2235473-1-arnd@arndb.de> (raw)

sys_newlstat is a system call implementation that is meant for user
space, and that copies kernel-internal data structure to the user
format, which is not needed for in-kernel users.

Further, as we rearrange the system call implementation so we can
extend it with 64-bit time_t, the prototype for sys_newlstat changes.

This changes the initramfs code to use vfs_lstat directly, to get
it out of the way of the time_t changes, and make it slightly more
efficient in the process. Along the same lines we also replace
sys_stat and sys_stat64 with vfs_stat.
