If a program wants us to perform a scrub on a file handle and the fd passed to ioctl() is not the file referenced in the handle, iget the file once and pass it into the scrub code. This amortizes the untrusted iget lookup over /all/ the scrubbers mentioned in the scrubv call. When running fstests in "rebuild all metadata after each test" mode, I observed a 10% reduction in runtime on account of avoiding repeated inobt lookups. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
