Re: [PATCH 3.10 14/46] d_walk() might skip too much

[Jari Ruusu]

My understanding is that this patch is trying to fix bugs in this commit:

https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git/commit/?h=linux-3.10.y&id=5f03ac13d87590b0ee879c77e68df63a3d9b3e07

The 3.10.y branch applied the original patch to three different places.
Quote from original commit: "As we only have try_to_ascend() and not
d_walk(), apply this change to all callers of try_to_ascend()"

Shouldn't this "d_walk() might skip too much" fix to 3.10.y branch be
applied to all three places too?
