[PATCH v7 02/12] file: Export receive_fd() to modules

From: Xie Yongji <hidden>
Date: 2021-05-17 09:56:33
Also in: kvm, linux-fsdevel, linux-iommu, lkml
Subsystem: filesystems (vfs and infrastructure), the rest · Maintainers: Alexander Viro, Christian Brauner, Linus Torvalds

Export receive_fd() so that some modules can use
it to pass file descriptor between processes without
missing any security stuffs.
