stop passing nameidata to ->lookup()

2012-07-14T12:34:32+00:00

Just the flags; only NFS cares even about that, but there are
legitimate uses for such argument.  And getting rid of that
completely would require splitting ->lookup() into a couple
of methods (at least), so let's leave that alone for now...

fs: move code out of buffer.c

2012-01-04T03:54:07+00:00

Move invalidate_bdev, block_sync_page into fs/block_dev.c.  Export
kill_bdev as well, so brd doesn't have to open code it.  Reduce
buffer_head.h requirement accordingly.

Removed a rather large comment from invalidate_bdev, as it looked a bit
obsolete to bother moving.  The small comment replacing it says enough.

cramfs: generate unique inode number for better inode cache usage

2011-01-13T16:03:23+00:00

Generate a unique inode numbers for any entries in the cram file system.
For files which did not contain data's (device nodes, fifos and sockets)
the offset of the directory entry inside the cramfs plus 1 will be used as
inode number.

The + 1 for the inode will it make possible to distinguish between a file
which contains no data and files which has data, the later one has a inode
value where the lower two bits are always 0.

It also reimplements the behavior to set the size and the number of block
to 0 for special file, which is the right value for empty files, devices,
fifos and sockets

As a little benefit it will be also more compatible which older mkcramfs,
because it will never use the cramfs_inode->offset for creating a inode
number for special files.
