[PATCH 10/16] fs: add vfs_remove_fscaps()

Seth Forshee (DigitalOcean) sforshee at kernel.org
Wed Nov 29 21:50:28 UTC 2023


Provide a type-safe interface for removing filesystem capabilities and
a generic implementation suitable for most filesystems. Also add an
internal interface, __vfs_remove_fscaps(), which is called with the
inode lock held and skips security checks for later use from the
capability code.
