From 8f6936f4d29aa14e54a2470b954a2e1f96322988 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andrew Morton Date: Mon, 4 Feb 2008 22:29:41 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] revert "capabilities: clean up file capability reading" Revert b68680e4731abbd78863063aaa0dca2a6d8cc723 to make way for the next patch: "Add 64-bit capability support to the kernel". We want to keep the vfs_cap_data.data[] structure, using two 'data's for 64-bit caps (and later three for 96-bit caps), whereas b68680e4731abbd78863063aaa0dca2a6d8cc723 had gotten rid of the 'data' struct made its members inline. The 64-bit caps patch keeps the stack abuse fix at get_file_caps(), which was the more important part of that patch.
