From 46a1c2c7ae53de2a5676754b54a73c591a3951d2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jie Liu Date: Tue, 25 Jun 2013 12:02:13 +0800 Subject: vfs: export lseek_execute() to modules For those file systems(btrfs/ext4/ocfs2/tmpfs) that support SEEK_DATA/SEEK_HOLE functions, we end up handling the similar matter in lseek_execute() to update the current file offset to the desired offset if it is valid, ceph also does the simliar things at ceph_llseek(). To reduce the duplications, this patch make lseek_execute() public accessible so that we can call it directly from the underlying file systems. Thanks Dave Chinner for this suggestion.
