[PATCH] vfs: Allocate anon_inode_inode in anon_inode_init()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Currently we allocated anon_inode_inode in anon_inodefs_mount. This is
somewhat fragile as if that function ever gets called again, it will
overwrite anon_inode_inode pointer. So move the initialization of
anon_inode_inode to anon_inode_init().
