Subject: [PATCH v3] vfs: avoid dereferencing pointers in iterate_supers callbacks
Date: Thu, 17 May 2018 17:54:20 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180517215420.1810-1-jlayton@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180517154646.18751-1-jlayton@kernel.org>

From: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com>

All of the callback functions for iterate_supers either ignore the
opaque argument, or dereference the pointer only to fetch the int
to which it points.

Change quota_sync_one to just cast the int from the pointer,
and change sync_fs_one_sb to just use a NULL/non-NULL pointer as a
flag.
