[PATCH v3 6/6] VFS: refactor vfs_read()

From: Dmitry Kasatkin
Date: Fri Oct 10 2014 - 10:10:55 EST


integrity_kernel_read() duplicates the file read operations code
in vfs_read(). This patch refactors vfs_read() code creating a
helper function __vfs_read(). It is used by both vfs_read() and
integrity_kernel_read().
