[PATCH bpf-next v1 04/11] namei: expose the stepwise ancestor walk to fs/

[Justin Suess]

Make vfs_walk_start(), vfs_walk_next() and vfs_walk_end() non-static
and declare them in fs/internal.h next to the walk state, so an
iterating consumer (BPF) can drive the walk with every step and
invariant staying in namei.c.  vfs_walk_ancestors() and its callback
contract are unchanged.
