Subject[PATCH 4.7 06/45] debugfs: introduce a public file_operations accessor
Date
4.7-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Christian Lamparter <chunkeey@googlemail.com>

commit 86f0e06767dda7863d6d2a8f0b3b857e6ea876a0 upstream.

This patch introduces an accessor which can be used
by the users of debugfs (drivers, fs, ...) to get the
original file_operations struct. It also removes the
REAL_FOPS_DEREF macro in file.c and converts the code
to use the public version.

Previously, REAL_FOPS_DEREF was only available within
the file.c of debugfs. But having a public getter
available for debugfs users is important as some
drivers (carl9170 and b43) use the pointer of the
original file_operations in conjunction with container_of()
within their debugfs implementations.
