linux/fs/xfs/linux/xfs_ioctl.c - 1.18
        - Patch from: William L Jones
          It use anonymous dcache entries like nfssd. 
          It use dentry_open from fs/open.c to do the mundane work of 
          creating a file entry.  
          I hope this will meke the code cleaner and easier to maintain and I 
think it  gets 
          rid of some potentially problems that can come about with the way 
nfsd use 
          dcache entries.  It really  needs will formed cache entries for files 
          and directories or for them to be anonymous so it can ignore them.
