From 2d902671ce1cd98cdc88d78c481889a1b2996101 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Miklos Szeredi Date: Thu, 30 Jun 2016 08:53:27 +0200 Subject: vfs: merge .d_select_inode() into .d_real() The two methods essentially do the same: find the real dentry/inode belonging to an overlay dentry. The difference is in the usage: vfs_open() uses ->d_select_inode() and expects the function to perform copy-up if necessary based on the open flags argument. file_dentry() uses ->d_real() passing in the overlay dentry as well as the underlying inode. vfs_rename() uses ->d_select_inode() but passes zero flags. ->d_real() with a zero inode would have worked just as well here. This patch merges the functionality of ->d_select_inode() into ->d_real() by adding an 'open_flags' argument to the latter. [Al Viro] Make the signature of d_real() match that of ->d_real() again. And constify the inode argument, while we are at it.

In other words, the only place walking the list of aliases is guaranteed to do it only when the list is empty... Remove the detritus; it should've been done in "[PATCH] Fix a race condition between ->i_mapping and iput()", but nobody had noticed it back then.
