[PATCH v4 12/14] ecryptfs: use new start_creating/start_removing APIs
NeilBrown
neilb at ownmail.net
Wed Oct 29 23:31:12 UTC 2025
From: NeilBrown <neil at brown.name>
This requires the addition of start_creating_dentry() which is given the
dentry which has already been found, and asks for it to be locked and
its parent validated.
