Subject: [PATCH 1/5] autofs4 - fix symlink name allocation
Date: Tue, 01 Jul 2008 17:25:50 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080701092548.12041.69868.stgit@raven.themaw.net> (raw)

The length of the symlink name has been moved but it needs to be
set before allocating space for it in the dentry info struct.
This corrects a mistake in a recent patch.

Signed-off-by: Ian Kent <raven@themaw.net>
