The patch titled iget: stop unionfs from using iget() and read_inode() has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is iget-stop-unionfs-from-using-iget-and-read_inode.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: iget: stop unionfs from using iget() and read_inode() From: David Howells <dhowells@xxxxxxxxxx> Stop the UnionFS filesystem from using iget() and read_inode(). Replace unionfs_read_inode() with unionfs_iget(), and call that instead of iget(). unionfs_iget() then uses iget_locked() directly and returns a proper error code instead of an inode in the event of an error. unionfs_fill_super() returns any error incurred when getting the root inode instead of EINVAL.
