Subject: IB/uverbs: Use alloc_file() instead of get_empty_filp()
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.26-rc1~1156^2~86
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=a7dab9e887ce37391f004ffd6ce0ffed7272fd69;p=karo-tx-linux.git

IB/uverbs: Use alloc_file() instead of get_empty_filp()

Christoph Hellwig wants to unexport get_empty_filp(), which is an ugly
internal interface.  Change the modular user in ib_uverbs_alloc_event_file()
to use the better alloc_file() interface; this makes the code cleaner too.
