From 8dc4e37362a5dc910d704d52ac6542bfd49ddc2f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Miklos Szeredi Date: Mon, 12 May 2008 14:02:04 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] ecryptfs: clean up (un)lock_parent dget(dentry->d_parent) --> dget_parent(dentry) unlock_parent() is racy and unnecessary. Replace single caller with unlock_dir(). There are several other suspect uses of ->d_parent in ecryptfs...
