Subject: [PATCH v4 42/54] gadgetfs: switch to simple_remove_by_name()
Date: Tue, 18 Nov 2025 05:15:51 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251118051604.3868588-43-viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251118051604.3868588-1-viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
No need to return dentry from gadgetfs_create_file() or keep it around
afterwards.
