Subject: get rid of kern_path_parent()
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=79714f72d3b964611997de512cb29198c9f2dbbb;p=linux-beck.git

get rid of kern_path_parent()

all callers want the same thing, actually - a kinda-sorta analog of
kern_path_create().  I.e. they want parent vfsmount/dentry (with
->i_mutex held, to make sure the child dentry is still their child)
+ the child dentry.
