Subject: namei: make put_link() RCU-safe
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=6548fae2eca6b66c7257af6663fdbdf5a50745fd;p=GitHub%2Fexynos8895%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal8895.git

namei: make put_link() RCU-safe

very simple - just make path_put() conditional on !RCU.
Note that right now it doesn't get called in RCU mode -
we leave it before getting anything into stack.
