The patch titled iget: stop ROMFS from using iget() and read_inode() has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was iget-stop-romfs-from-using-iget-and-read_inode.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: iget: stop ROMFS from using iget() and read_inode() From: David Howells <dhowells@xxxxxxxxxx> Stop the ROMFS filesystem from using iget() and read_inode(). Replace romfs_read_inode() with romfs_iget(), and call that instead of iget(). romfs_iget() then uses iget_locked() directly and returns a proper error code instead of an inode in the event of an error. romfs_fill_super() returns any error incurred when getting the root inode instead of EINVAL.
