Subject: [PATCH v4 40/54] functionfs: switch to simple_remove_by_name()
Date: Tue, 18 Nov 2025 05:15:49 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251118051604.3868588-41-viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251118051604.3868588-1-viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
No need to return dentry from ffs_sb_create_file() or keep it around
afterwards.
To avoid subtle issues with getting to ffs from epfiles in
ffs_epfiles_destroy(), pass the superblock as explicit argument.
Callers have it anyway.
