Subject: [patch 06/28] jfs: dont overwrite dentry name in d_revalidate
Date: Wed, 17 Nov 2010 01:09:06 +1100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20101116142028.741959418@kernel.dk> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20101116140900.039761100@kernel.dk
[-- Attachment #1: jfs-d_compare-constify.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 2412 bytes --]
Use vfat's method for dealing with negative dentries to preserve case,
rather than overwrite dentry name in d_revalidate, which is a bit ugly
and also gets in the way of doing lock-free path walking.
