fs/anon_inode: Introduce a new lib function anon_inode_getfile_private()
Introduce a new lib function anon_inode_getfile_private(), it creates a new file instance by hooking it up to an anonymous inode, and a dentry that describe the "class" of the file, similar to anon_inode_getfile(), but each file holds a single inode. Furthermore, anyone who wants to create a private anon file will benefit from this change. Signed-off-by: Gu Zheng <guz.fnst@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Benjamin LaHaise <bcrl@kvack.org>
