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. If in doubt, please check the listed branch. tree: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs.git branch: vfs.misc [1/1] fs/dcache: Re-use value stored to dentry->d_flags instead of re-reading https://git.kernel.org/vfs/vfs/c/8bfb40be31dd

Currently, the __d_clear_type_and_inode() writes the value flags to dentry->d_flags, then immediately re-reads it in order to use it in a if statement. This re-read is useless because no other update to dentry->d_flags can occur at this point. This commit therefore re-use flags in the if statement instead of re-reading dentry->d_flags.
