[PATCH v8 04/10] kernfs: Introduce interface to access global kernfs_open_file_mutex.

From: Imran Khan
Date: Sat Apr 09 2022 - 22:38:05 EST


This allows to change underlying mutex locking, without needing to change
the users of the lock. For example next patch modifies this interface to
use hashed mutexes in place of a single global kernfs_open_file_mutex.
