      inode->i_op is never NULL · acfa4380
      Al Viro 提交于
      We used to have rather schizophrenic set of checks for NULL ->i_op even
      though it had been eliminated years ago.  You'd need to go out of your
      way to set it to NULL explicitly _and_ a bunch of code would die on
      such inodes anyway.  After killing two remaining places that still
      did that bogosity, all that crap can go away.

      fs: symlink write_begin allocation context fix · 54566b2c
      Nick Piggin 提交于
      With the write_begin/write_end aops, page_symlink was broken because it
      could no longer pass a GFP_NOFS type mask into the point where the
      allocations happened.  They are done in write_begin, which would always
      assume that the filesystem can be entered from reclaim.  This bug could
      cause filesystem deadlocks.
      
      The funny thing with having a gfp_t mask there is that it doesn't really
      allow the caller to arbitrarily tinker with the context in which it can be
      called.  It couldn't ever be GFP_ATOMIC, for example, because it needs to
      take the page lock.  The only thing any callers care about is __GFP_FS
      anyway, so turn that into a single flag.
      
      Add a new flag for write_begin, AOP_FLAG_NOFS.  Filesystems can now act on
      this flag in their write_begin function.  Change __grab_cache_page to
      accept a nofs argument as well, to honour that flag (while we're there,
      change the name to grab_cache_page_write_begin which is more instructive
      and does away with random leading underscores).
      
      This is really a more flexible way to go in the end anyway -- if a
      filesystem happens to want any extra allocations aside from the pagecache
      ones in ints write_begin function, it may now use GFP_KERNEL (rather than
      GFP_NOFS) for common case allocations (eg.  ocfs2_alloc_write_ctxt, for a
      random example).

      [ Cleaned up the calling convention: just pass in the AOP flags
        untouched to the grab_cache_page_write_begin() function.  That
        just simplifies everybody, and may even allow future expansion of the
        logic.   - Linus ]
