[PATCH 01/27] userns: pass const uid_gid_map in lookup helpers

Christian Brauner brauner at kernel.org
Tue Sep 1 12:14:26 UTC 2026


map_id_down(), map_id_up() and map_id_range_up() search the extents
of an idmapping and never modify it. Let all relevant helpers pass a
const struct uid_gid_map. Callers can now pass pass struct mnt_idmap as
const and pass down &idmap->uid_map and &idmap->gid_map.

No functional changes.
