From 85fe4025c616a7c0ed07bc2fc8c5371b07f3888c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christoph Hellwig Date: Sat, 23 Oct 2010 11:19:54 -0400 Subject: fs: do not assign default i_ino in new_inode Instead of always assigning an increasing inode number in new_inode move the call to assign it into those callers that actually need it. For now callers that need it is estimated conservatively, that is the call is added to all filesystems that do not assign an i_ino by themselves. For a few more filesystems we can avoid assigning any inode number given that they aren't user visible, and for others it could be done lazily when an inode number is actually needed, but that's left for later patches.
