The new feature UBIFS_FLG_PARENTPOINTER allows looking
up the parent. Usually the Linux VFS walks down the filesystem
and no parent pointers are needed. But when a filesystem
is exportable via NFS such a lookup is needed.
We can use a padding field in struct ubifs_ino_node to
maintain a pointer to the parent inode.

Insignificant thing, but use the existing if-statment instead?

Cheers,

Of course.
I moved the line around and oversaw the existing branch. :)

Hi Richard

I found a mistake in this patch.

I guess that dir->i_ino should be assigned to ui->parent_inum.

Uff, right.
It is obvious that I did this series in a hurry. :D
