[PATCH v2 3/3] fs: use kmem_cache_create_rcu()

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

 



Switch to the new kmem_cache_create_rcu() helper which allows us to use
a custom free pointer offset avoiding the need to have an external free
pointer which would grow struct file behind our backs.
