[PATCH v9 14/31] fanotify: Allow file handle encoding for unhashed events

From: Gabriel Krisman Bertazi <hidden>
Date: 2021-10-25 20:09:40
Also in: linux-api, linux-fsdevel
Subsystem: fanotify, filesystems (vfs and infrastructure), fsnotify: filesystem notification infrastructure, the rest · Maintainers: Jan Kara, Alexander Viro, Christian Brauner, Linus Torvalds

Allow passing a NULL hash to fanotify_encode_fh and avoid calculating
the hash if not needed.
