[PATCH 01/16] vfs: split do_lookup()

From: Miklos Szeredi
Date: Mon May 21 2012 - 11:30:07 EST


From: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@xxxxxxx>

Split do_lookup() into two functions:

lookup_fast() - does cached lookup without i_mutex
lookup_slow() - does lookup with i_mutex

Both follow managed dentries.

The new functions are needed by atomic_open.
