From b2f1e6301efa4a80becdb0715416c3cbc693fbb4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: NeilBrown Date: Wed, 1 Jul 2026 21:51:55 +1000 Subject: Remove excl arg to ->create inode_operation The only time that 'false' is passed as the 'excl' arg to the ->create inode_operation is in lookup_open() when ->atomic_open is not provided by the parent directory. *all* directory inode_operations which do not have ->atomic_open completely ignore the 'excl' arg. Therefore we don't need the 'excl' arg. Those few ->create operations which pay attention to the arg are only ever called with a value of 'true'. We remove that arg and change all ->create operations to behave as those thhe arg were 'true'.
