Subject: [CFR][PATCH] namei fixes (2/19)
Date: Thu, 19 May 2005 23:56:10 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <E1DYtw2-0007qi-Vr@parcelfarce.linux.theplanet.co.uk> (raw)
(2/19)
All callers of do_follow_link() do mntget() right before it and dput()+mntput()
right after. These calls are moved inside do_follow_link() now.
Obviously equivalent transformation.
