[PATCH 48/75] sysfs: Remove s_dentry

Previous message: [thread] [date] [author]
Next message: [thread] [date] [author]
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Friday, October 12, 2007 - 3:16 pm

From: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com>

The only uses of s_dentry left are the code that maintains
s_dentry and trivial users that don't actually need it.
So this patch removes the s_dentry maintenance code and
restructures the trivial uses to use something else.
