Linus Torvalds ab5ed08f2d Merge tag 'vfs-7.3-rc1.lookup' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull vfs lookup updates from Christian Brauner:
 "This refactors lookup_open() and adds vfs_lookup_open() for nfsd.

  mnt_want_write() and parent locking are moved into lookup_open()
  itself.

  audit_inode_child() is also now called in lookup_open() on failure.
  That is the calling convention in vfs_create() and vfs_mkdir(), but
  lookup_open() made no such call when atomic_open() should have created
  a file and did not. And neither did the regular ->create() path fwiw.

  This also contains work to remove the unneeded excl argument from the
  ->create() inode op"
