This won't apply any more. We very recently changed a large number of filesystems to not call update_atime() from within their readdir functions. That operation was hoisted up to vfs_readdir().
Also, rather than adding MNT_IS_RDONLY() and having to remember to check both the inode and the mount all over the kernel it would be better to change IS_RDONLY() to take two arguments - the inode and the vfsmnt. That way we won't miss places, and unconverted code simpy won't compile, thus drawing attention to itself. I don't know if this is feasible, but please consider it. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
