I guess that is what I am asking... What is different between the following:

int foo(void){
        return 0;
}

and

int foo_prime(void) {
        return foo();
}

That is my interpretation of the code.  It would *seem* to just pass the 
call off to the next FS layer as if the VFS system of the kernel had done it
directly.... Conceptually I must be missing something.
