Subject: [PATCH] namei fixes (4/19)
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.12~99
X-Git-Url: https://err.no/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d73ffe16b8baafae6e9249acee6b50c24099c6de;p=linux-2.6

[PATCH] namei fixes (4/19)

path.mnt in open_namei() set to mirror nd->mnt.

nd->mnt is set in 3 places in that function - path_lookup() in the beginning,
__follow_down() loop after do_last: and __do_follow_link() call after
do_link:.

We set path.mnt to nd->mnt after path_lookup() and __do_follow_link().  In
__follow_down() loop we use &path.mnt instead of &nd->mnt and set nd->mnt to
path.mnt immediately after that loop.

Obviously equivalent transformation.
