Subject: saner FASYNC handling on file close
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.28-rc3~19
X-Git-Url: http://pilppa.com/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=233e70f4228e78eb2f80dc6650f65d3ae3dbf17c;p=linux-2.6-omap-h63xx.git

saner FASYNC handling on file close

As it is, all instances of ->release() for files that have ->fasync()
need to remember to evict file from fasync lists; forgetting that
creates a hole and we actually have a bunch that *does* forget.

So let's keep our lives simple - let __fput() check FASYNC in
file->f_flags and call ->fasync() there if it's been set.  And lose that
crap in ->release() instances - leaving it there is still valid, but we
don't have to bother anymore.
