[PATCH 6.6 260/331] Revert "eventfs: Use simple_recursive_removal() to clean up dentries"

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

 



6.6-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: "Steven Rostedt (Google)" <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx>

This reverts commit 055907ad2c14838c90d63297f7bab8d180a5d844.

The eventfs was not designed properly and may have some hidden bugs in it.
Linus rewrote it properly and I trust his version more than this one. Revert
the backported patches for 6.6 and re-apply all the changes to make it
equivalent to Linus's version.
