Subject: [PATCH 3/3] VFS: Remove redundant open-coded mode bit checks in open_exec().
Date: Wed, 12 Jul 2006 13:50:12 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060712175012.7413.24685.stgit@lade.trondhjem.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20060712175006.7413.91738.stgit@lade.trondhjem.org>

From: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

The check in open_exec() for inode->i_mode & 0111 has been made
redundant by the fix to permission().
