[PATCH 0/5] RESEND dcache/namei fixes for lustre

From: NeilBrown
Date: Mon Feb 12 2018 - 16:31:15 EST


Hi,
this is a resend of some patches I send in August 2017.
They fix a couple of little bugs in the namei-related code
and clean up other bits.
Only change is that one patch was dropped as other dcache changes
made it irrelevant.

There will be compiler warnings about a 'const' until a patch that I
sent to Al Viro - and which he acknowledged - lands in the tree.

Thanks,
NeilBrown
