[PATCH 04/13] fs/unionfs/: Several small cleanups in unionfs_interpose

From: Josef 'Jeff' Sipek
Date: Sun Mar 04 2007 - 20:56:56 EST


1) No need to lock the inode - lockdep was complaining about potential
circular dependency

2) No need to use temporary variable for iunique() inode number

3) Removed unneeded comment
