[PATCH 03/25] give may_open() a local 'mnt' variable

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



First of all, this makes the structure jumping look a little
bit cleaner.  So, this stands alone as a tiny cleanup.  But,
we also need 'mnt' by itself a few more times later in this
series, so this isn't _just_ a cleanup.
