Subject: [PATCH] struct path: move struct path from fs/namei.c into include/linux
X-Git-Tag: v3.12-rc1~32302^2~366
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=346f20ff6020ffa11d40b789069079c56a444ae6;p=kernel%2Fkernel-generic.git

[PATCH] struct path: move struct path from fs/namei.c into include/linux

Moved struct path from fs/namei.c to include/linux/namei.h.  This allows many
places in the VFS, as well as any stackable filesystem to easily keep track of
dentry-vfsmount pairs.
