Subject: [PATCH v4 59/59] switch init_mkdir() to use of do_mkdirat(), etc.
Date: Thu, 8 Jan 2026 07:38:03 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260108073803.425343-60-viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260108073803.425343-1-viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
Completely straightforward, the only obstacle is do_mknodat() being
static.
