take a look at real_lookup() in namei.c. All the operations come
from the inode.
struct inode_operations *i_op;
struct file_operations *i_fop; /* former ->i_op->default_file_ops */
struct file_operations *i_fop; /* former ->i_op->default_file_ops */
Understanding the Linux Kernel has a good write up on the VFS.
