From: Christian Brauner <redacted> Various filesystems use the lookup_one_len() helper to lookup a single path component relative to a well-known starting point. Allow such filesystems to support idmapped mounts by enabling lookup_one_len() to take the idmap into account when calling inode_permission(). This change is a required to let btrfs (and other filesystems) support idmapped mounts.NAK. Expose a new variant if you must, but leave the old one alone.
Ok, happy to do that.
