From 5f92b3bcec0fa2e2d775b589850097f9dc6b2de2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Al Viro Date: Mon, 6 Jun 2005 13:35:59 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] namei fixes (2/19) All callers of do_follow_link() do mntget() right before it and dput()+mntput() right after. These calls are moved inside do_follow_link() now. Obviously equivalent transformation.
