Patches in the vfs.misc branch should appear in linux-next soon. Please report any outstanding bugs that were missed during review in a new review to the original patch series allowing us to drop it. It's encouraged to provide Acked-bys and Reviewed-bys even though the patch has now been applied. If possible patch trailers will be updated. Note that commit hashes shown below are subject to change due to rebase, trailer updates or similar.

The compiler emits 2 access in fops_get(), put is patched to maintain some consistency. This makes do_dentry_open() go down from 1177 to 1154 bytes. This popped up due to false-sharing where loads from inode->i_fop end up bouncing a cacheline on parallel open. While this is going to be fixed, the spurious load does not need to be there. No functional changes. Signed-off-by: Mateusz Guzik <mjguzik@gmail.com> --- include/linux/fs.h | 15 +++++++++++---- 1 file changed, 11 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-)
