From 75c5a52da3fc2a06abb6c6192bdf5d680e56d37d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jan Kara Date: Wed, 26 Mar 2014 06:20:14 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] vfs: Allocate anon_inode_inode in anon_inode_init() Currently we allocated anon_inode_inode in anon_inodefs_mount. This is somewhat fragile as if that function ever gets called again, it will overwrite anon_inode_inode pointer. So move the initialization of anon_inode_inode to anon_inode_init().
