nfsd: take struct file setup fully into nfs4_preprocess_stateid_op This patch changes nfs4_preprocess_stateid_op so it always returns a valid struct file if it has been asked for that. For that we now allocate a temporary struct file for special stateids, and check permissions if we got the file structure from the stateid. This ensures that all callers will get their handling of special stateids right, and avoids code duplication. There is a little wart in here because the read code needs to know if we allocated a file structure so that it can copy around the read-ahead parameters. In the long run we should probably aim to cache full file structures used with special stateids instead. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: J.
