Subject: [PATCH 3/5] remove spurious VN_HOLD/VN_RELE calls from xfs_acl.c
Date: Wed, 23 Jul 2008 21:49:42 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080723194942.GD6188@lst.de> (raw)

All the ACL routines are called from inode operations which are
guaranteed to have a referenced inode by the VFS, so there's no need
for the ACL code to grab another temporary one.
