From 37b85bd5f20cbe28140d370a840738b6f2e85cbf Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Greg Kroah-Hartman Date: Tue, 16 Feb 2021 16:12:09 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] drivers: vmw_balloon: remove dentry pointer for debugfs There is no need to keep the dentry pointer around for the created debugfs file, as it is only needed when removing it from the system. When it is to be removed, ask debugfs itself for the pointer, to save on storage and make things a bit simpler. Cc: Nadav Amit Cc: "VMware, Inc."
