[PATCH 1/6] kernfs: add @mode to kernfs_create_dir[_ns]()

From: Tejun Heo
Date: Wed Dec 11 2013 - 16:03:17 EST


sysfs assumed 0755 for all newly created directories and kernfs
inherited it. This assumption is unnecessarily restrictive and
inconsistent with kernfs_create_file[_ns](). This patch adds @mode
parameter to kernfs_create_dir[_ns]() and update uses in sysfs
accordingly. Among others, this will be useful for implementations of
the planned ->mkdir() method.

This patch doesn't introduce any behavior differences.
