Subject: [PATCH 13/39] fallthru: Basic fallthru definitions
Date: Mon, 3 May 2010 16:12:12 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1272928358-20854-14-git-send-email-vaurora@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1272928358-20854-1-git-send-email-vaurora@redhat.com>
Define the fallthru dcache flag and file system op. Mask out the
DCACHE_FALLTHRU flag on dentry creation. Actual users and changes to
lookup come in later patches.
Signed-off-by: Valerie Aurora <vaurora@redhat.com>
