Subject: vfs: add i_op->dentry_open()
X-Git-Url: http://git.lede-project.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=4aa7c6346be3;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git

vfs: add i_op->dentry_open()

Add a new inode operation i_op->dentry_open().  This is for stacked filesystems
that want to return a struct file from a different filesystem.
