From f459dffae1c6026928bbe8e972daecb635b7b5e9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dominik Brodowski Date: Sun, 11 Mar 2018 11:34:48 +0100 Subject: fs: add ksys_rmdir() wrapper; remove in-kernel calls to sys_rmdir() Using this wrapper allows us to avoid the in-kernel calls to the sys_rmdir() syscall. The ksys_ prefix denotes that this function is meant as a drop-in replacement for the syscall. In particular, it uses the same calling convention as sys_rmdir(). This patch is part of a series which removes in-kernel calls to syscalls. On this basis, the syscall entry path can be streamlined.
