From 806cbae1228cc1a19b978c4513f6851e9ab7f388 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dominik Brodowski Date: Sun, 11 Mar 2018 11:34:47 +0100 Subject: fs: add ksys_sync_file_range helper(); remove in-kernel calls to syscall Using this helper allows us to avoid the in-kernel calls to the sys_sync_file_range() syscall. The ksys_ prefix denotes that this function is meant as a drop-in replacement for the syscall. In particular, it uses the same calling convention as sys_sync_file_range(). This patch is part of a series which removes in-kernel calls to syscalls. On this basis, the syscall entry path can be streamlined.
