Subject[PATCH 02/24] VFS: replace {, total_}link_count in task_struct with pointer to nameidata
Date
From: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

task_struct currently contains two ad-hoc members for use by
the VFS: link_count and total_link_count.
These are only interesting to fs/namei.c, so exposing them
explicitly is poor layering.

This patches replaces those with a single pointer to 'struct
nameidata'.
This structure represents the current filename lookup of which
there can only be one per process, and is a natural place to
store link_count and total_link_count.

This will allow the current "nameidata" argument to all
follow_link operations to be removed as current->nameidata
can be used instead.

As there are occasional circumstances where pathname lookup can
recurse, such as through kern_path_locked, we always save and old
current->nameidata (if there is one) when setting a new value, and
make sure any active link_counts are preserved.

follow_mount and follow_automount now get a 'struct nameidata *'
rather than 'int flags' so that they can directly access
link_count and total_link_count, rather than going through 'current'.
