Subject: [PATCH 03/10] fs: add namei support for doing a non-blocking path lookup
Date: Fri, 13 Dec 2019 11:36:25 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <[email protected]> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <[email protected]>

If the fast lookup fails, then return -EAGAIN to have the caller retry
the path lookup. This is in preparation for supporting non-blocking
open.
