This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled eventfs: Restructure eventfs_inode structure to be more condensed to the 6.6-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: eventfs-restructure-eventfs_inode-structure-to-be-more-condensed.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.6 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From SRS0=eEWY=JP=rostedt.homelinux.com=rostedt@xxxxxxxxxx Tue Feb 6 13:11:09 2024 From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 06 Feb 2024 07:10:00 -0500 Subject: eventfs: Restructure eventfs_inode structure to be more condensed To: linux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>, Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>, Sasha Levin <sashal@xxxxxxxxxx>, Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@xxxxxxxxxx>, Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@xxxxxxx>, Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@xxxxxxxxxxxx>, Christian Brauner <brauner@xxxxxxxxxx>, Al Viro <viro@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>, Ajay Kaher <ajay.kaher@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Message-ID: <20240206120955.335266477@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> From: "Steven Rostedt (Google)" <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx> commit 264424dfdd5cbd92bc5b5ddf93944929fc877fac upstream. Some of the eventfs_inode structure has holes in it. Rework the structure to be a bit more condensed, and also remove the no longer used llist field.
