Remove the obsolete NULL > checks. ipc/mqueue.c should be rewritten to use vfs_path_lookup instead. nfsd is special - people need to deal with the !nameidata or !intent case anyway because the fs/exportfs/expfs.c code uses lookup_one_len all over when the filesystem is mared nfs exportable, but fortunately the filesystem that are nfs exportable are usually not those using intents. We might eventually fix this one day by having some kind open by handle intent, but that should come as part of a large patch series where we qualify the type of lookup for every single lookup. - 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/ | ||||||||||||
