The patch titled knfsd: exportfs: move acceptable check into find_acceptable_alias has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is knfsd-exportfs-move-acceptable-check-into-find_acceptable_alias.patch *** Remember to use Documentation/SubmitChecklist when testing your code *** See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: knfsd: exportfs: move acceptable check into find_acceptable_alias From: Christoph Hellwig <hch@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> All callers of find_acceptable_alias check if the current dentry is acceptable before looking for other acceptable aliases using find_acceptable_alias. Move the check into find_acceptable_alias to make the code a little more dense and add a comment to find_acceptable_alias that documents its intent.
