This patch embeds an xfs_name in xfs_da_args, replacing the name, namelen, and flags
members.  This helps to clean up the xfs_da_args structure and make it more uniform
with the new xfs_name parameter being passed around.

Maybe xfs_name_copy and xfs_name_equal are in order?
You are suggesting to add xfs_name_copy and xfs_name_equal helpers? I'm not sure there's a use case yet for xfs_name_equal, at least not in this set. And I think people indicated that they preferred the memcpy in past reviews rather than handling each member of the xfs_name struct. Unless I misunderstood the question, I'm not sure there is much left for a xfs_name_copy helper to cover that the memcpy does not?

It seem that the context of these comments be clear in the future.
You are asking to add more context to the comment?  How about:
	/*
	 * Use name now stored in args.  Abandon the local name 	
	 * parameter as it will not be updated in the subroutines
	 */

Does that help some?

This doesn't look good it looks like a hack.

Even if want to avoid growing struct xfs_name we can store two shorts instead
of overloading int type with flags.
type doesn't even need more than a single byte, because XFS_DIR3_FT_WHT
is not used and will never be used on-disk.

Thanks,
Amir.

The exact use of .type has gone around a few times since this patch started, which was actually all the way back in parent pointers. :-) Initially the xfs_name struct replaced anything that passed all three parameters, and then later we decided that flags should stay separate for top level get/set/remove routines, but become integrated below the *_args routines. I don't recall people being concerned about growing the struct, though a union seems reasonable to resolve the naming weirdness. I would like to have a little more feedback from folks though just to make sure everyones in agreement since this one's gone through quite few reviews already. Thanks all!
