From cda309de253f338b04d15b4478e45fc3a0fcc7a3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Miklos Szeredi Date: Mon, 26 Mar 2012 12:54:21 +0200 Subject: vfs: move MAY_EXEC check from __lookup_hash() The only caller of __lookup_hash() that needs the exec permission check on parent is lookup_one_len(). All lookup_hash() callers already checked permission in LOOKUP_PARENT walk.
