From ce27e317ba22b359bde02216afab934dac3af095 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tejun Heo Date: Tue, 3 Jul 2012 10:38:06 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] cgroup: cgroup_rm_files() was calling simple_unlink() with the wrong inode While refactoring cgroup file removal path, 05ef1d7c4a "cgroup: introduce struct cfent" incorrectly changed the @dir argument of simple_unlink() to the inode of the file being deleted instead of that of the containing directory. The effect of this bug is minor - ctime and mtime of the parent weren't properly updated on file deletion. Fix it by using @cgrp->dentry->d_inode instead.
