Hi, IMHO, How about the following message: netfs: make @file optional in netfs_alloc_read_request() Make the @file parameter optional, and derive inode from the @folio parameter instead in order to support file system internal requests. @file parameter can't be removed completely, since it also works as the private data of ops->init_rreq().
