Re: [PATCH 07/30] IGET: Stop BEFS from using iget() and read_inode()

If you're soliciting opinions, I think I tend to prefer the feel of the
code paths after the changes.  I don't know the benefits of the change
are worth the risk in unmaintained file systems, though.

This caught my eye.  Surely we can do better :).  It seems to happen a
few times in the patches, the instance in this patch was the first that
I noticed.
