Next part of VFS stuff: getting do_filp_open() to relative sanity. There will be more piles (the next one is dealing with write_inode mess, in an hour or so). Please, pull from git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs-2.6.git/ for-linus
Shortlog: Al Viro (18): beginning to untangle do_filp_open() gut do_filp_open() a bit more (do_last separation) Shift releasing nd->root from do_last() to its caller unroll do_last: loop in do_filp_open() postpone __putname() until after do_last() pull the common predecessors into do_last() bail out with ELOOP earlier in do_link loop pull more into do_last() Don't pass mangled open_flag to finish_open() Get rid of passing mangled flag to do_last() Leave mangled flag only for setting nd.intent.open.flag Pull handling of LAST_BIND into do_last(), clean up ok: part in do_filp_open() Kill is_link argument of do_last() Unify exits in O_CREAT handling Turn do_link spaghetty into a normal loop Finish pulling of -ESTALE handling to upper level in do_filp_open() Get rid of symlink body copying Switch !O_CREAT case to use of do_last()
