patches/old/autofs-use-inode-permission-method-for-write-access.patch

From: Ian Kent <raven@themaw.net>
Subject: autofs: use inode permission method for write access
Date: Fri, 08 Jul 2022 09:43:01 +0800

Patch series "autofs: misc patches".

This series contains several patches that resulted mostly from comments
made by Al Viro (quite a long time ago now).


This patch (of 5):

Eliminate some code duplication from mkdir/rmdir/symlink/unlink methods by
using the inode operation .permission().
