Subject: [PATCH v2 5/6] ovl: port ovl_create_or_link() to new ovl_override_creator_creds cleanup guard
Date: Mon, 17 Nov 2025 10:34:42 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251117-work-ovl-cred-guard-prepare-v2-5-bd1c97a36d7b@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251117-work-ovl-cred-guard-prepare-v2-0-bd1c97a36d7b@kernel.org>
This clearly indicates the double-credential override and makes the code
a lot easier to grasp with one glance.
