I don't think this is a good idea. The functions are still following the backing chain. A generic "chain" could mean following the bs->file links or any other children, so the new name is confusing because it doesn't really tell you any more what the function does. I'd prefer the name to stay specific. > While at it, add some comments that note which functions require their > caller to ensure that a given child link is not frozen, and how the > callers do so. > > Signed-off-by: Max Reitz <mre...@redhat.com> Kevin
