Subject: get rid of nd->file
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=70e9b3571107b88674cd55ae4bed33f76261e7d3;p=GitHub%2Fmt8127%2Fandroid_kernel_alcatel_ttab.git

get rid of nd->file

Don't stash the struct file * used as starting point of walk in nameidata;
pass file ** to path_init() instead.
