[PATCH] cramfs: generate unique inode number for better inode cache usage

From: stefani
Date: Sun Dec 12 2010 - 06:19:19 EST


From: Stefani Seibold <stefani@xxxxxxxxxxx>

This patch generates a unique inode numbers for any entries in the cram file
system. For files which did not contain data's (device nodes, fifos and
sockets) the offset of the directory entry inside + 1 will be used as the
inode number.

The + 1 for the inode will it make possible to distinguish between
a file which contains no data and files which has data, the later one has
a inode value where the lower two bits are always 0.

It also reimplement the behavoir to set the size and the number of block
to 0 for special file, which is the right value for devices, fifos and
sockets.

As a little benefit it will be also more compatible which older
mkcramfs, because it will never use the cramfs_inode->offset for
creating a inode number for special files.

Please apply it.

Thanks,
Stefani
