The only reason why ep_item_poll() can't simply call ep_eventpoll_poll() (or, better yet, call vfs_poll() in all cases) is that we need to tell lockdep how deep into the hierarchy of ->mtx we are. So let's add a variant of ep_eventpoll_poll() that would take depth explicitly and turn ep_eventpoll_poll() into wrapper for that. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
