    [PATCH] A basic NFSv4 client for 2.5.x · 62d86355
    Trond Myklebust authored
    This patch changes the interface of the ->setattr() nfs_rpc_op
    so that its first argument is a dentry instead of an inode.
    
    [Explanation: The dentry is required because in NFSv4, we may
     need to OPEN the file before doing the SETATTR.  (This is
     required if the file size is changed as part of the setattr.)
     Opening the file requires making use of the containing
     directory's inode.]
