Can you send your code? As far as I can tell, what you did should work,
but it depends on what "file" is. Also, make sure that the "4585" that
you see is coming from this specific printk, and you also might want to
print out file->f_dentry->d_name.name at the same time, because maybe
4585 is for a different file.
