Date: Thu, 28 May 2009 16:00:55 -0700 Message-ID: <1243551665-23596-14-git-send-email-ebiederm@xmission.com> References: Cc: , Tejun Heo , Cornelia Huck , , Kay Sievers , Greg KH , "Eric W.

Biederman Now that sysfs_getattr and sysfs_permission refresh the vfs inode there is no need to immediatly push the mode change into the vfs cache. Reducing the amount of work needed and simplifying the locking. Acked-by: Tejun Heo Signed-off-by: Eric W.
