Subject: [PATCH] fat: Expand a slightly out-of-date comment
Date: Thu, 27 Sep 2018 10:00:46 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180927150046.11538-1-mihir@cs.utexas.edu> (raw)

The file namei.c seems to have been renamed to namei_msdos.c, so I
decided to update the comment with the correct name, and expand it a bit
to tell the reader what to look for.
