From: "J. Bruce Fields" <bfields@xxxxxxxxxx> The DCACHE_NEED_LOOKUP case referred to here was removed with 39e3c9553f34381a1b664c27b0c696a266a5735e "vfs: remove DCACHE_NEED_LOOKUP". There are only four real_lookup() callers and all of them pass in an unhashed dentry just returned from d_alloc. Signed-off-by: J.
