Prev: net: reserve ports for applications using fixed port numbers
Next: [PATCH 02/12] flash_read should update ppos instead of file->f_pos
From: Jan Blunck on 9 Apr 2010 10:10
This is a repost of a patch series I already posted in November 2009. This time
I left out the patch that removes the BKL from default_llseek() since this
should go through Frederic's tree. This series mostly consists of fixing direct
modifications of file->f_pos and some additional cases where nonseekable_open()
can be used. The rest of this series is unrelated to but a preparation for the
BKL removal from default_llseek().

Thanks,
Jan
