From a969fd5a4e162c4485ae8f3e49d674656a18fa36 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Trond Myklebust Date: Tue, 22 Aug 2006 20:06:04 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] VFS: Remove redundant open-coded mode bit checks in open_exec(). The check in open_exec() for inode->i_mode & 0111 has been made redundant by the fix to permission().
