Subject[PATCH 01/13] vfs: add i_op->open()
Date
From: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz>

Add a new inode operation i_op->open(). This is for stacked
filesystems that want to return a struct file from a different
filesystem.

+ dentry_open: this is an alternative to f_op->open(), the difference is that
+ this method may open a file not necessarily originating from the same
+ filesystem as the one i_op->open() was called on. It may be
+ useful for stacking filesystems which want to allow native I/O directly
