[PATCH 4/7] fs: add mnt_allow_writers() and simplify mount_setattr_prepare()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Add a tiny helper that lets us simplify the control-flow and can be used
in the next patch to avoid adding another condition open-coded into
mount_setattr_prepare(). Instead we can add it into the new helper.
