From 4f697a5e173023a4f566339452a9d6f2cc7bd7dc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Al Viro Date: Sun, 10 May 2015 10:50:41 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] namei: simpler treatment of symlinks with nothing other that / in the body Instead of saving name and branching to OK:, where we'll immediately restore it, and call walk_component() with WALK_PUT|WALK_GET and nd->last_type being LAST_BIND, which is equivalent to put_link(nd), err = 0, we can just treat that the same way we'd treat procfs-style "jump" symlinks - do put_link(nd) and move on.
