doutc(fsc, "%p %llx.%llx\n", inode, ceph_vinop(inode));
That means I have to declare this variable at the beginning of the function because the kernel unfortunately still doesn't allow C99 rules (declare variables where they are used). And that means paying the overhead for chasing 3 layers of pointers for all callers, even those 99.99% who return early. Or declare the variable but initialize it later in an extra line. Is that the preferred coding style?
WARN_ON_ONCE(!queue_work(ceph_inode_to_fs_client(inode)->inode_wq,&ceph_inode(inode)->i_work));This function looks like ceph_queue_inode_work() [1]. Can we use ceph_queue_inode_work()?
No, we can not, because that function adds an inode reference (instead of donating the existing reference) and there's no way we can safely get rid of it (even if we would accept paying the overhead of two extra atomic operations).
Do you imply "if i_work were already"?
Yes, it's a typo.
