dlm: fix malfunction of dlm_tool caused by debugfs changes
With the current kernel, `dlm_tool lockdebug` fails as below: "dlm_tool lockdebug ED0BD86DCE724393918A1AE8FDBF1EE3 can't open /sys/kernel/debug/dlm/ED0BD86DCE724393918A1AE8FDBF1EE3: Operation not permitted" This is because table_open() depends on file->f_op to tell which seq_file ops should be passed down. But, the original file ops in file->f_op is replaced by "debugfs_full_proxy_file_operations" with commit 49d200deaa68 ("debugfs: prevent access to removed files' private data"). Currently, I can think up 2 solutions: 1st, replace debugfs_create_file() with debugfs_create_file_unsafe(); 2nd, make different table_open#() accordingly. The 1st one is neat, but I don't thoroughly understand its risk. Maybe someone has a better one. Signed-off-by: Eric Ren <zren@suse.com> Signed-off-by: David Teigland <teigland@redhat.com>
